I wonder how people would have responded had the disclosure come from an independent security researcher instead of Google, knowing fully well that a patch is to be rolled out in 2 days.

I haven't come across a source for that. Does one exist?

For all I know, Microsoft announced it in reaction to the publication, but I have no clue Google could have been made aware of it beforehand.

Edit: nevermind, I've found one.
