Microkernels by themselves are not special; SeL4 is because it's proven to be secure.

SeL4 is a very interesting kernel even without taking the proof into account (eg in platforms/builds that the proof doesn't cover).

I wish someone would build a beyond-posix desktop OS on top of it...

It's proven correct against specification. That's not the same thing as 'secure' (although it helps).
