I agree with most of what you've said. However, I've seen several people say that video and photo editing are tasks that they would like to be able to do more efficiently on a Chromebook. I think Google is going to address that problem sooner rather than later with the hiring of Adobe Photoshop Exec John Nack.

Thanks for the info. on guvcview, J G. I have already tried it after searching for alternatives to Cheese. It's still not working completely on either my Ubuntu 12.04/13.10 or Linux Mint 14 desktops on more than one laptop: 2008 Toshiba Satellite and 2009 HP Pavillion. Both were pre-installed with Vista and Windows 7, respectively. Maybe I haven't tried hard enough to figure out why it's not working.
