Seems like this has more to do with the overlay system than XUL itself. Losing the ability to add overlays to customize the browser chrome would be brutal, and a move away from XUL shouldn't be done at the expense of what the ecosystem provides today for people who need to customize the browser.
I think the ignorequery proposal would be really useful -- today, these customizations are bypassed if the user adds an arbitrary param to the uri, which rarely is what was intended.
