It's WAY too early to be making judgements, but if it were left just the way it is shown, I doubt it would catch on. It looks like it could turn into a confusing, cluttered mess. IMHO, way too much is being put into this "3D fad". I'm all for tech breakthroughs, and hey, I like looking cool too....but, there are lots of things that can be worked on and fixed with CURRENT browsers. Besides, something like that belongs on a 3D OS, which we don't have yet (No Bill, I don't consider your little Aeroglass and thumbnailed windows in VISTA to count....besides, Linux beat you to that anyway).
