Given the amount of PDF exploits over the years and the habit of browsers to automatically invoke your PDF viewer of choice either as a plug-in or call out, they're an easy target.
Having a sandboxed PDF viewer that works 95% of the time is great. For those 5% circumstances where I am actively trying to view a PDF and it won't work in browser, I'll gladly go through the minimal effort to open it in an external viewer.
