Honestly we just need more options in terms of web engines

I'd already be happy if we still have the ones we have today in ten years.

Yup, there's 3-4 active ones, depending on how you count it (more if you count toy projects):

  • Blink - Chrome
  • WebKit - Safari
  • Gecko - Firefox
  • KHTML - Konqueror, discontinued this year in favor of WebKit

So essentially three, though Blink is a fork of WebKit, so kinda 2.5.
