So although the idea is good, there will still be self indudgent morons who moan.

"In addition, Apple released a beta version of its Safari 4 browser earlier this week"
Was that really a beta ?
I thought it was the official release. I checked the website, and there is no mention of beta or RC.

Can you imagine that, every computer on the planet downloading 300mb of patches at the same time, that would stress test the Internet...

Yeah, so let's give all the Septics 100MB to download at teatime on Thursdays? Right in the middle of my pr0n c0cktales? Boo hiss, might have to go to bed early.
Tux, 'cos he loves pr0n.

Isn't WebKit the underlying framework of Safari rather than Chrome?

Id rather a fix to come out quicker than once a month. The amount of times ive seen system being infected (And they still do) because MS take ages to do a patch.
But take any OS software. And its patched within the day.

WebKit is an Apple fork of KDE's HTML and JavaScript engines, but is open source and Apple code has gone back into Konqueror. In making Chrome, WebKit was Google's choice of engine.
The relationship between Apple and the KDE developers hasn't been plain sailing (if you are interested, Wikipedia summarises some of the difficulties).
