A bookmark is a shortcut to a single URL which opens in a browsing context. A web app on the other hand can consist of multiple URLs. Installing an app into the app registry should register that app (identified by manifest URL) as handling a particular collection of URLs (defined by the "scope" property) using an application context (a browsing context with the manifest applied) in its preferred display mode (defined by the "display" property). You can also bookmark/pin a page (we don't have to have a registry in Gecko for that), and that bookmark could open in an application context (if it falls under the scope of an installed app) or a browsing context. But yes, there are probably things we could get rid of. I would imagine that exactly what we do will depend on various UX > decisions.
