My understanding of "proper" webapps is that the implementation we ended up with in Ubuntu 12.10 was pretty poor and was shipped incomplete. Webapps should be standalone apps without the extra browser chrome so that they look and feel rather similar to native apps. In other words it shouldn't be possible to have several different tabs open in a single webapp. I think the sound menu or launcher integration, etc. should only work with the standalone webapps and not if a user happens to have amazon.com or YouTube open in their regular Firefox browser. The sound menu obviously shouldn't break if a user wants to have 15 separate YouTube windows open but it doesn't seem like something that would happen very often.
