Ok, but that isn't "the web."

You are completely free to write and launch a new app that does this today. Just don't try and shoehorn it into my web browser.

It's "the sandboxed, browser agnostic web".

I'm not sure that it can be called "the Web" if it doesn't have directly accessible pages linked by hypertext, instead having a single page/app for instance (even if it runs on the top of the HyperText Protocol...) We're getting into non-Web Internet territory here...
