Given that web apps still fail to do drag-and-drop (and copy and paste) as nicely as native apps — and these things have been a staple of Mac interaction since forever — I do not hold out much hope.

Well yeah, it's "if they wanted". Apple has the same incentive to not turn Safari into a viable app platform that Microsoft had with IE in the 90's.

Maybe because they don't believe it's the best route to go for them and their users? I'm inclined to agree, although I'd like to see the open web succeed, but I will weep if I have to use web apps instead of native apps for anything that couldn't be a website.
