>But does it matter? Will Chrome matter? Will telling people to install Chrome to install my app be worth it? Will other browsers follow suit? I don't think the idea is to tell people to install Chrome to install your app. It's just another 'retail' front for your app that can give you more exposure. Also, I don't think the Chrome App idea is primarily designed for developers. It's designed for users, so that they have a central place to browser the next generation webapps. Clearly it's very good for Chrome users, but it might still not be worth it for developers.
