"Normal web pages must ask for permission from the user before they can do relatively innocuous things like show notifications, use the clipboard, or access permanent storage. This makes sense; it would be annoying for random web pages you stumble across to show desktop notifications. On the other hand, if a web app repeatedly asks for permission, that's a terrible user experience."

If those apps "host" advertisements (e.g. because they are paid by advertisement) within themselves and those ads would have same privileges as apps but were doneby "random" vendors, that would be terrible security wise though...
