"Windows/DirectX/UDP is too well-supported and mainstream, let's build a twitch MMO using Javascript/WebGL/WebSockets!"

I wonder what the intersection of "people that want to play MMOs" and "people that don't want to install anything" is. There are good game streaming technologies (e.g. Guild Wars) that minimize the patch time, so it feels like a bit of a straw-man.
