> With canvas and WebGL taking more and more, it will turn back into an X terminal, with more advanced network capabilities. For some specialized apps this will be great, but for apps in general this is not a good idea at all. If it was, we'd be using Java applets today. HTML+CSS based apps are highly constrained. But that's a positive, not a negative, because it is the constraints that makes HTML based apps predictable, consistent and usable.
