I'm talking about limitations in web apps that exist right now. For example with browser-based apps:

* Lack of data ownership, how do you export/backup?

* Poor keyboard shortcut support, e.g., constant conflicts between the browser itself and the app being run in the browser

With Electron based apps:

* Performance obviously, this might get better in the future, but that's a big bet of your time investment in learning and building on the tool. The fact that Atom is slow on a top-of-the-line machine is concerning. Sure that'll improve in time, but what if I also want to run it on more constrained device, tablets, etc...

* Electron apps still have a long ways to go to support basic platform expectations, e.g., on OS X Atom doesn't Services, AppleScript, or piping to the command line utility.
