Doesn't seem much different when anyone brings up X11 vs Wayland, etc. It all boils down to 'I DON'T LIKE CHANGE!!11'
It's funny. Is there a single Linux component that people are eagerly waiting for in Slashdot?

but by now I assume most of the YouTube content plays through HTML 5 if one want to?
True. All clips can be watched in HTML5 now in YouTube, including live broadcasts.
I think there's still many local TV broadcast services which require Flash. For example in Finland I still need Flash to use YLE Areena, the public TV/radio broadcaster's online clip hive.
As long as the 64-bit version fully supports Flash on all platforms, I'm all for it. Like it or not, you need to support Flash, 64-bit or not.
Umm...Chrome comes always with the integrated PPAPI Flash plugin. Actually it's the only way to use a modern Flash plugin under Linux. As far as I know, the crusty NPAPI Flash plugin on Linux (package flashplugin-installer in Ubuntu, for example) still gets security updates, but is otherwise stuck on some ancient version number.
Plus this is somewhere that a desktop environment like unity would shine unlike a more conventional desktop.
Unity is a conventional desktop, not a mobile UI.

Nokia's current CEO Rajeev Suri certainly does not work for Microsoft.
