Is there someway to do standalone installs as well? It seems like that might be against Google's motives in getting everyone to use Chrome as a browser, but it would make it easier to distribute applications in a "traditional" manner.

Plus, it would be nice to have dedicated icons, etc...

Can you run Chrome Apps with that though? It looks like it might be just nodejs.

No, you cannot build Chrome Apps with Node-WebKit, but you can target Win/Lin/OSX. See my comments below: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6778882
