I am a web developer, you have no need to tell me what HTML5 widgets are or aren't. If much less complex than quake, I've written an animated game in HTML too. Back when Netscape ruled. That doesn't make javascript a good platform for running real time applications on top of. One thing Widgets aren't, is resource effective, precompiled complex software that has been developed over many years.

Any platform can support Opera, and Opera has been and will probably continue to be one of the biggest contributors to standardizing HTML5. Out-of-the-browser Widgets has been one of the things Opera has been doing for many years. So

YES

an HTML5 based environment can be replaced with just a good browser. Some might care for it. I don't. No more than I care for the web version of Photoshop.
