Win7 and IE9 had some integration, not sure if anyone used it but they are trying. http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/222712/how_to_prepare_your_web

  That looks like a copy of chrome's "create application shortcut" and is less than a tiny percentage of what ubuntu is announcing. Am I missing something?

    Last time I used it, Chrome's shortcut was just a shortcut and nothing more (which launched into a chromeless browser window). Perhaps that has changed. The Windows 7 stuff integrates more deeply into the OS, so you can pin a site to the taskbar and its icon will appear like any other app, you can create what they call "jump lists" which are available on right click of the taskbar icon, and from those you can visit deep links inside of a web app. So it's much more than the Chrome thing, but not quite as deep as this Ubuntu announce.
