The problem with GMail launching browser-encrypted email is that you have two groups of people:

(a) People that don't care about encryption. Unlikely to get any signifacant amount of adoption. (b) People who do. This group of people know that browser-based encryption can't be done in a trusted manner, hence, won't want to use such a product.

Luckily Google's thought of that. They're working on an extension: https://code.google.com/p/end-to-end/
