On the other hand... To be fair - If I were running a company that dealt 
with data of a sensitive nature or whatever - I wouldn't be using google 
docs etc as the platform for editing, creating etc that info. So I kind 
of agree I guess.

I think it got me thinking about those online IDEs and whatnot that 
allow people to work through the browser - would google have auto rights 
over this stuff? Not that I'd use it - but as this browser is meant to 
be geared towards becoming an application platform not just a browser, 
people would expect to be able to work in it without that work 
automagically belonging to google.
