An "IE6 compatibility mode" for Chrome anyone? That would be the last hurdle for corporate adoption. Now that's what I call "low barrier of entry"!

Easy, all you have to do is reproduce the entireity of IE6 in Chrome. Every little undocumended feature, quirk and difference. And it's all a black box cause IE6 is closed source. Good luck with that. :P

Couldn't they just use something like the IE tab extension (https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/hehijbfgiekmjfkf...)

Interesting... an opt-out-per-site rather than opt-in-per-site version of Chrome Frame.
