Comment (by mattdm):

 I think there are at least three separate issues here:

 1. Presentation of proprietary web services as applications in Gnome
 Software and Gnome Shell search. (Subtopic: does this differ from a
 wrapper which downloads Java or native code and runs that in a sandbox?)
 2. Curation of the list of services that are presented — should this be a
 Fedora community process (and if so, how can we make that open without
 being heavyweight?)
 3. How we deal with applications with the sole purpose of interacting with
 a proprietary service, in general, whether they are wrapped websites or
 local open source code.
