As long as they don't change the spec, this will only be available to special locally installed apps in enterprise ChromeOS environments. I don't think their latest weird app format is going to make it to other browsers, so this will remain one of those weird Chrome only APIs that nobody uses.

There was https://developer.chrome.com/docs/apps/overview though, so this seems to be a kind of planned feature creep after deprecating former one? "Yeah our enterprise partners now totally need this, you see, no reasoning needed"
