At very high level I think it will involve the following

1 Integrate one of the existing web application frameworks inside Sugar.
Basically being able to run a web activity inside the Sugar shell,
integrating with the window manager and the launcher.
2 Native-like UI implemented with HTML5 and CSS.
3 Javascript libraries providing access to Sugar collaboration and
datastore.

We did quite a bit of research and experimentation with these already and
we have a pretty solid idea of how 2 should be done, so on that one I think
it's worth to start coding.

But of course we will have to get to the other points too.
