So Thunderbird implemented it because Cyrus did.

Cyrus implemented it because Polymer and M-Box did. (Actually I can't  
recall if M-Box or Cyrus got there first).

And Polymer did because Arnt did in Archiveopteryx.

So actually everyone's just slavishly following Arnt.

So on that principle, if I can get Arnt to implement ACAP, then  
Google will surely follow.
