It won't happen for 3 reasons:
1. Performance: web apps run on top of at least two additional layers.
2. Features: OS makers will never make device features fully available to web apps in order to protect its users from malicious code. Read about FFOS privileged API to understand why even an OS that was designed to use web apps exclusively restrains features.
3. Market acquisition/retain: MS became MS b/c Office only run on Win. Same deal with (popular) apps that only run on a given platform. Think BB chat "back in the day".
