I appreciate the list of issues affecting home screen web apps on iOS. We're looking into improving how they work. I can't promise any specific set of improvements or timeline but we are aware of the issues you mention.

Appreciate the willingness to address it, it would be the completest thing if HTML5 Apps worked as well as safari tabs. Very empowering thing for you to do for us web devs, thanks!

If you can share any history or stories about the origins of that feature landing on the iPhone, I would be grateful. I find it all fascinating.
