" including the horizontal google-bar at the top "
I believe this would just make everything too complicated than it needs to be for the average user; besides, the likelyhood is that the user already uses Google, so there's no need for Google to try and reel users in via a search applet (that would probs make YouTube look ugly).
And, aren't Google Accounts already merged with YouTube Accounts ?
Good point on the top bar. I still have a YouTube account that I'm almost positive wouldn't log me in to anything besides YouTube, maybe that's not true or maybe its just because I'm grandfathered in.
You can still avoid it if you really want to. My account is now a google account but my flatmates youtube account is still separate. They keep bugging him but he keeps dodging it, wont agree to the new terms.
