I'm not certain if that accurately reflects where the WebKit community stands. There was a lot of contentious discussion on the webkit-dev thread [1] and Bugzilla [2] I agree some people are in favor but I wouldn't say everyone is definitely in the favor. Also, WebKit's implementation also caps the number of cores at eight to mitigate some of the finger printing / privacy concerns raised.
