I understand what you are saying but am not clear as to why it should be so. Having programmed GUI apps in Microsoft Windows and X-Windows/Motif (which can be remote) on Unix systems i am not sure why we cannot have a similar uniform architecture for "Web Apps".

Also given that HTTP has now been munged into practically being a Transport protocol for anything, previous limitations are no longer an excuse.
