This was certainly the right decision. Mozilla and Google have much different goals, and it would have been silly for Mozilla to commit the necessary resources to this idea when the benefits to Mozilla and the customer are not guaranteed. Implementing this properly could take over a year and the end result may not even improve the product.

Google decided to go forward with this project because the corporation will greatly benefit if it succeeds. Mozilla does not have the correct payoff to take the risk.
