Spirited discussion! I think for the average Joe, this change does not matter (i.e neither good, nor bad). Two better changes: a) highlight https / secure connections even more prominently, and b) detect and highlight misspelled domain names (a major cause of phishing attacks). Rationale is that for the average Joe, a clear warning that they are about to go to a bad site is more valuable than looking at the accurate domain name.
