I think this is a very cool idea.. it means people can hack and do experiments with the browser platform.. something the big guys (the one that owns the browsers and the commites) dont like much we do
On the other side i think it will find a ferocious competition from the chrome apps.. since there are a web_contents or webview one could embed via extensions..
so the big question is, how this idea could distinguish itself enough so it can be competitive with chrome extensions? (since chrome dominate all over?)
anyway we need badly that some people stand against some standards and try to do some things better.. it must come from people outside the players.. cause its there innovation really lies..
the corporate world took control of all the standards, and freeze it out.. so they can come up with dubious platforms on the other side, or influence standards to comply with a strategy that is good for them..
so this open world we all like, are pretty much in danger
because "they" are controlling it
i think also there is a catch with javascript.. and by allow it to do more, there are a bad effect on the first good thing on html.. that is HTML markup!
i mean.. less html and more js code means we are endind with a common language and grammar of communication between computers and people .. with js taking more and more part of it.. we wont be able to understand whats suppose to print in the screen anymore.. it gets more and more obscure, and less standard.. and this in the end will just help the bad guys with their closed platforms..
anyway.. this is all things we should think.. theres a lot in stake here.. we need to protect and save what is good..
and we need to be able to distinguish what it is, so we dont end aiding the things we are against to in the first place
