From eWeek: "In a session billed as the browser wars up close and personal, key Microsoft, Mozilla and Google representatives spoke about the past present and future of the browser platform as they see it . . . one of the issues that stood out to me was that of developer discontent. When the Ajaxians opened up questioning to the audience, an attendee stood up and said Google's announcement of its new browser "was greeted with shock and horror," by him."

That would be Acid 3, of course. Epiphany with Gecko 1.9 gets 71/100. Epiphany with Webkit gets 97/100. I think I heard the IE8 beta 2 score is something like 17/100. You are quite correct in pointing out that javascript compatibility is the big hurdle for web apps. (And even just web sites.) Incompatible CSS behavior makes the site look odd. Incompatible javascript behavior completely breaks the site, making it unusable. Mozilla and Microsoft really need to get with the program.
