Hi Miles, I've worked with EXT and Silverlight, both of which can make very rich client experiences, across a browser based system.
If you make the browser "chromeless", and limit/customize right click it's very difficult to tell you're ina browser, besides the title bar, (unless of course you get rid of this too). Note when I've designed for very rich interactions, cross browser compatibility can be a monster, as is browser version to version. If you can control the browser & version, you'll be much farther ahead. OK best of luck, if you find a better/new framework, definitely tell me! Ciao!
