How about an email application that handles keyboard acceleration really well? This can be done easily with Silverlight (in or out of the browser), but not so much with HTML. That's why Gmail has crummy keyboard handling. In Thunderbird, I can tab my way around the entire interface if I want to or use keyboard shortcuts.
I'm sure the Gmail team could do a bunch of hacks to fix this, but that's the problem. You have to hack-up everything to make HTML work well as an application platform.
