I'm sure after the scorn and derision Airbus earned from Boeing fans with the delay of the A380 due to too short cables that needed to be replaced, this third problem with the Dreamliner will give some Airbus-fans some gloomy satisfaction.

Both planes mark two very different longterm strategies of both companies, and although technically the A350 should be seen as the competing Airbus model to the dreamliner, it was always the comparison of these two keydesigns, Dreamliner versus A380 - that fused debate, and attracted people's comparison.
