They are NOT asking the Webkit project to add Dart. They want to get a pluggable VM system into Webkit. Then once that is in place, Google would not need to fork Webkit to get Dart into Chrome. And any other vendor that wants to be able to extend Webkit with another VM would not need to fork it either. It is clear that Google wants to get a Dart VM into Chrome, and I would rather that happen via a pluggable VM system than via a fork of WebKit.
