Sort of...? But couldn't this just revert over time to being just as messy as the current UA String?

And yes, from the PoV of non-dominant browsers, who often need to maintain support for their development by citing usage numbers, I don't think it would be a good thing to suppress the the browser name.

I do not think you can engineer a system to 100% eradicate browser sniffing and targeting. Some of this will always have to be tackled through best practice sharing and community pressure.
