It is starting to go mainstream. Most mobile phones do a lesser form of this, most "web apps" do a very similar form of this, even new windows 10 UWP apps are pushing in this direction.
Everyone knows it's needed, and many see how good of a solution it is, and how much MORE can be done once there is a good baseline, but that line needs to be walked very carefully.
Once apps stop being able to do their job because of un-escapable restrictions, it becomes a problem. And once it becomes a problem, people (both developers and users) will start actively trying to get around it, which means it's not going to work at all.
