It will never happen. But it would be a good thing for the openness of the web. More Firefox, less Chrome.

Wouldn't it put Firefox on a pickle? Say Chrome gets bought out of Google's hands, would they still bother to pay half a billion to Firefox to stay as the default search engine? Could Firefox survive being financially independent?

I'd assume they would be willing to pay even more.
