There are a lot of activities in the Googleplex - some may just be trial and error approaches to new technologies, but if the rumor is true, they will create an editor for AJAX driven sites.
That will for sure push that "technology", which is no more then the combination of techniques already there, but also an improvement of useability, if everyone uses it. Hope both main browsers (FF and IE) will be close to the same standards, or that technology will just bring more problems!
