Well, yes. They're basically evolving the WebKit in Chromium in a different direction, so it's not going to suddenly totally change language. This is surely, surely not related to the fact that Google and Apple have moved from being best buddies with shared board members to being direct competitors...

I think it's more that Google is wed to V8 while WebKit is wed to JavaScriptCore. Supporting both meant that there was an abstraction layer which prevented using a JS DOM implementation. My reading of the relevant threads gives me the impression that WebKit will be doing so as well now that JSC can be assumed.
