Google creating a browser?

What's next after getting your hands in search engines, shopping comparisions, and even email? Build your own browser of course! And this is what Google may be doing. According to this website, Google has registered the domain name of gbrowser.com, and a bug report on Mozilla's bug tracking system also offers some clues. Here's some more speculation on what a Google browser can have...
Google could use their JavaScript expertise (in the form of Gmail ubercoder Chris Wetherell) to build Mozilla applications. Built-in blogging tools. Built-in Gmail tools. Built-in search tools. A search pane that watches what you're browsing and suggests related pages and search queries or watches what you're blogging and suggests related pages, news items, or emails you've written.
Sounds good to me...
