We should learn from what happened with Internet Explorer. It had a much larger share than Chrome has now, and a lot of people designed for IE first. The consequences were too many to write down in this comment. Let's just say there were some regrets :-)

We don't know how the situation will look like in the near future. If a large enough portion of the users switch to a different browser, it quickly becomes an issue.

It is in my opinion part of what companies should include in their risk assessments. Looking at the general trends, I would not be surprised if at least EU governments and institutions will ban Chrome due to privacy and data security. That will probably lead to others switching as well.
