My thoughts are mixed. On the one hand, there is a ton of money being funneled away from desktop UIs and being dumped into browser technology. On the other hand, browsers are awful platforms for developing desktop applications and there doesn't seem to be any real drive to address the shortcomings, as everyone is focused on mobile. My current work is focused on the web stack, not because it is a better platform, but because that's how everyone is wanting to deploy these days. However, I've been starting to see some chatter and recognition lately that perhaps the web is best left to documents, and large applications should continue to use native toolkits. This is promising. There is room for both technologies, and I hope that mindset takes hold.
