Very cool, but I doubt useful in practice. Only rarely will I want an app on my desktop, and those that I do will likely require disk access and other things a PWA won't be able to touch.

Most of this thread was based on *desktop* apps. I really love (mobile) PWA’s, I could see them replacing almost every mobile app I use, except maybe social media, music players and email clients. My reaction before was in response to a *desktop* PWA requesting file system access

To be clear my need for desktop apps is even lower than mobile, but inherently requiring a ton of trust and permissions: IDE, database explorer/manager, etc. I can’t imagine a PWA ever approaching that level.

It also gives auto play permissions apparently.
