I'd argue that the reason the Linux Community doesn't want this is that it introduces maintenance burdens on the community that only really serves to support corporations shipping proprietary software.

I really don't care about making proprietary software easier on linux, but I do care about linux having to carry the baggage of backwards compatability like Windows has had to handle just so that Google can deliver Chrome as a binary more reliably.
