Well we're listening, we're just waiting for some arguments as to why
the community should consider investing time and effort into this,
instead of just assertions that VR is the future of the internets.

There's certainly scope for content beyond text and embedded media in
the projects. But it's going to start with things like 3D models
incorporated into articles through canvas elements rather than fully
immersive environments.

To that end, does anyone know what happened to that project to embed
3D models of chemical compounds?
