"Packaged app pages always load locally. This allows apps to be less =
dependent on the network. Once a user installs an app, they have full =
control over the app's lifecycle. Apps open and close quickly, and the =
system can shut apps down at any time to improve performance. Users can =
fully uninstall apps."

Does this mean that upon install, a nice, icon-emblazoned package will =
drop into my /Applications folder on a Mac, or in my Windows Start menu, =
etc... Or are packaged apps always launched and maintained from within =
Chrome itself?

Provided that the technical stuff could be made to work within the =
context of the more limited API, this certainly seems like an =
interesting, user-friendly way to distribute a Bitcoin wallet!
