But that's already possible without bitcoin ever getting involved. Not to mention that (I'd wager) 95% of transactions online are single-currency.

I guess I'm just not seeing the benefit to the end user here. Bitcoin is cool and all, but so far it hasn't actually solved anyone's problems (and isn't it incredibly slow to process a transaction these days?)

10 minutes on average to process a transaction, the drive thru line is gonna get a lot longer.
