the interesting question for me is what this means for the big players and their respective platforms. For instance, the more traditionally native features webapps take on, the less reason I have to need a native app hence am less coupled to a platform. I have always been a bit apprehensive to native apps because of platform lockin and it feels like this plus some of the push from google and their upcoming iot url push system makes it feel like web standards might really make webapps as common/popular/featured(or more) as native. It has plenty of kinks to work out around not being too spammy/sneaky with permissions but overall it feels like this is a major advancement for the web as a platform - assuming the big platform players implement it well.
