It may well be too late, given Google has absolute control over web standards and their policy of introducing draft features in Chrome and then making them part of the standard. Unless an anti-trust case is brought against them which explicitly mentions their browser engine and standards monopoly, and correctly points out that every other browser today is just a skin around Chrome while Firefox is controlled opposition. Every case against them seems to obsess on the search engine monopoly.
