I was recently trying to get some basic stuff done in the web version of Excel. I have an Apple Magic Mouse which has a touchpad so you can do gestures and scroll in any direction. The spreadsheet had a lot of columns, so I was doing a lot of left and right scrolling to get around, but most of the time I tried to scroll to the left (by swiping right on the touchpad), it'd start activating the browser's back gesture to take me back to the last page I was on before opening the spreadsheet. Eventually I gave up and used the desktop app and it was like a breath of fresh air (which is saying something for an Office app) Trying to port desktop apps to the browser is already so limiting from the fact that the browser itself gets first claim to so many keyboard shortcuts. Want to make your app do something when the user hits Cmd+L ? Well good luck cause that already focuses the address bar. And you certainly don't get to use Cmd+W because that will close your entire app!
