I think Chris's comment #8 is about what we want to provide to developers like me, who want to use HTML5 as the best way to get cross-platform implementations.

This approach works especially well for games and other use cases that take over the entire screen and do not need platform widgets.

They'll expect to provide all their own assets and want to access them from the local filesystem.

I am not sure from reading comment #8 whether this is proposed to live in oxide itself or in webbrowser-app binary/qml but in any case, the concept of an "application bundle" seems sound to me.
