Although true, HTML doesn't let you customize context menus or (easily) open multiple windows either, and UI interactions frequently lag, but it's used for general desktop development all the time. These issues seem to be more that describing something as for desktop development raises the bar fairly significantly in terms of expected feature set. That's reasonable, but we should be careful in describing something as unsuitable because it lacks things HTML also lacks.
