There you go. Another one! See what i'm saying? So much wasted effort and a dozen of half baked programs all of which implement low hanging fruit of the same set of basic features and have no resources left to deliver truly powerful and polished capabilities. 

And what exactly stops your one-to-rule-them-all from just becoming yet another one? (Or: what exactly means that the world will flock to your proposal instead of continuing to do what it already does?) As far as I can see, it is based on wishful thinking alone.

Build a consensus *first* and make sure you're serving everyone else's needs and that everyone else is interested. Otherwise you end up with https://xkcd.com/927/.
