If we do a thorough job now on extending the code-less web, I find it hard to think of sites that couldn't be realized then _and_ shouldn't be a native program in the first place.
I simply don't want a web that has place for "apps". For multiple reasons random websites shouldn't have the possibility to make the visitors system execute supplied code. Yes, some people don't agree with that, but they have usually motives for that which I cannot agree with like withholding code or control from users or tracking them. If you have a good reason why there should be apps in the browser, then I'd love to hear it, though.
The _example_ suggestion to look at existing framework is just a shortcut to not redo work, and to use already existing knowledge. If someone has an idea of what functionality should be supported we can discuss and standardize it. We had lots of technology completely independent of JavaScript. There is a lot of movement in the JavaScript ecosystem because a lot of ecosystem needs to be developed and there are big companies pushing for it, because they need it to monetize their users, but thats it. JavaScript isn't that important.
