Oh really? Do you suppose many VCs will want to invest in his startup, knowing that a crowd of zealots will be chomping at the bit to protest them and boycott their other investments?
I'm afraid he may be effectively blacklisted in this industry now.
I don't think most people who disliked him as CEO had a problem with him as CTO of Mozilla.
I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to oust him from the CTO position as well. It's not like it took that much effort on their part. Sign a petition here, post blog post there and presto Eich resigned.

1) Startup doesn't necessarily mean VC funded, or large VC funded.
2) He doesn't have to be CEO; I don't think most people who disliked him as CEO had a problem with him as CTO of Mozilla.
