I think Denis reminded us (or me at least) what the browser can do and what is possible, I think taking it to the next level would be to show both worlds web like and desktop like but working together (how would that interface be?) for a better user experience, better usability,etc, its all about facilitating users life, I am a fan of apple for this same reason, apple have done a great job with its new iPhone 5, everything on it has a use, its not there just to be.
Any way good luck Denis!
