That's all very true, but can you point to an alternative? If you were a small team with few resources, and you wanted to ship a cross-platform desktop app, what would you choose?
There ar plenty of portable toolkits out there. Gtk, Qt, WxWidgets, Fltk, Tk, several others, with bindings to more or less any language you may care to think of. And Lazarus/FreePascal, of course.
You may even embed some web-engine. It doesn't have to involve obscene amounts of megabytes and the selling of your soul to the Google monster.
