I think this is such an important distinction that we should build it into web standards.

A site should label itself as either a "plain site" or a "web app". "Sites" may only use a limited subset and amount of javascript (perhaps none?!). Browsers, search engines, and plugins can treat plain sites and web apps differently.

I too dislike the fact that web developers have the freedom to make design decisions with which I disagree.

any site with a login is probably already self-identifying to some degree.

If the goal is to let developers make more design decisions, shouldn't we give websites root access to the machine by default?
