Interesting that the JavaScript interface is very similar to Android's own intents. From the example in the spec:

  var intent = new Intent("http://webintents.org/edit",
                          "text/uri-list;type=image/jpeg",
                          getImageDataURI(...));
  navigator.startActivity(intent, imageEdited);

You'll notice that all of the editors are Googlers.
