I can see .Net core eventually covering everything in framework other than windows specific bits, and desktop UI.

UWP, Xaml, and Mono could then become libraries as expansion on .Net core.

IIRC, .NET on UWP apps already are using .NET Core inside, at least if they are using the .NET Native toolset which is built on/from .NET Core.

That doesn't help anyone that thinks UWP itself is a "fad" (as in the GP comment) think .NET Core might not be a fad too, but UWP seems to be here to stay despite how many ancient developers seem to have "Win32 or Die" tattoos.
