I think there are plenty of people who would disagree (about web being developer-hostile). You could look at the Microsoft Windows 8 activities that recently had so much blogged and otherwise written from the recent event. Whether web "replaces" native, here's one man's opinion: http://www.informationweek.com/news/development/web/231500197?cid=nl_IW_daily_2011-08-18_html there are plenty of others, of course.
