Would you hold a different opinion for different types of HTML5-based applications (like the TiddlyWiki app that gets copied locally)? Or would you require that all apps go through an install process that acquires quota, permissions, etc.?
Locally-stored apps are a different story. But I don't necessarily see TiddlyWiki (or similar apps) as working that way. It currently has to be saved to a local HTML file because its only mechanism for saving content is to self-modify its source. With HTML5 persistent storage, there's no reason it couldn't live on a server like tiddlywiki.com. With app-caching support too, it would work offline just as well as the current version does.
