I am not sure why the division between apps and the web is even a useful one. What is the difference between a tab in my browser and an app on my taskbar? The app was likely downloaded from the web and sends/receives data from the web. The difference is how it caches data; which has always had a huge impact on user experience.
The most important thing is to find better ways of synchronising data between a user machines and the web. It should be possible to download a complete document as a file, use a web cache to render it, and then submit edits to the cloud as a diff. The user shouldn't need to worry if this is happening locally or not.
