Yes.

Does this buy us other features, like hardware accelerated scrolling, which Safari is able to take advantage of?
I haven't looked into this yet, but it seems likely. (I doubt it came for free, but maybe we would get this by switching to layer-backed views. Not sure, though—again, I haven't really looked into this yet.)

And are extensions a Safari thing, or a webkit thing? 1Password coming back to the OmniWeb party would be quite something!
Extensions are a Safari thing—but now that OmniWeb is 64-bit it's a lot more likely that support could be added for those. Or at least enough support to let OmniWeb integrate with 1Password.
