There's also experiments like electrino [1] to force more use of platform webviews since all of our platforms have a webview built in anyway, trading some additional testing for bundling Chromium everywhere.

I'm surprised that I haven't yet seen a fork of electron-windows-store [2] that makes use of the UWP webview, as that seems an obvious enhancement to me. The Electron remoting between webviews and Electron code is already setup well enough you should be able to run the Node app as a UWP background app and use UWP remoting.
