Web apps != desktop apps, at least not for now. When I looked Cappuccino a while back, I was impressed by what it could do inside a browser in terms of GUIs. However, when I researched a bit how I could use Cappuccino to solve the problems I was having at the time, I quickly got stuck.
A common use case for web apps is to allow for collaboration and/or sharing (e.g. Basecamp, Github....). When you look at the tutorials for Cappuccino you can quickly find out how to make an image editing app, but if you want to find out how to do even basic stuff (for web apps) like saving data to a backend, you have to search really hard.
In addition to that, Cappuccino always looked somewhat immature - even now the home page is somewhat broken. You don't want to bet on a new framework AND a completely new language when it looks immature.
