The web is a great platform, and so are browsers. JS apps running in the browser? Not so much.
How many of those features you list are routinely broken by SPAs?
Bookmarking and sharing URLs? Almost always.
Going back and having a history? Often.
Having multiple tabs, and forms autocomplete? Sometimes.
I hate web development mainly because I love the web so much.
Ask your users to install your app and qualify as extra features (with associated budget) the capabilities of bookmarking, sharing urls, having multiple tabs, "remember me" and forms autocomplete, going back, having a history, or auto-update.
Justify it to them it's because their browser is a bad frontend platform. Like this horrible, horrible mobile twitter lite ;).
In my first year of programming, html was such a joy to use compared to gcc. Could get a button with a background color and an image displayed under 2min. Just saying.
