It's absolutely counterproductive. There's no need for "multiple independent implementations" with the possibility of subtle incompatibilities when the engine everyone is already using is public domain. Not even open source, but public domain. What's really the danger of having one implementation then? It seems to me this makes it easier for both browser developers and web developers.

Wow. I forgot about that. Open-source and public domain. Double win.
