How could that work, given that a web site can change its working every day? Each site can have its passionated circumvention developer that maintains an extension like this. Is it reasonable to expect that each browser can do the same for each website? And is it reasonable to expect it for Google's Chrome?

It is within Mozilla's reach to spend an extra $200k on compatibility [hacks] for each of the top ten websites. Their CEO could easily take a $2M wage cut and still be overpaid.
I guess in an idea world servers would return only data and browsers would style that data to each yours preferred looks.
