This isn't required for web apps. The web apps are listed in the activities view as stand alone applications. Each web app is run as a separate entity, and therefore won't be affected by another epiphany instance crashing. They can be added to the dash too. The main advantage is improved visibility. You can run a web app by just typing related keywords in the activities view. New users that will go through the application list will see them and it'll increase awareness about the different web applications we use. They're only limited to epiphany at the moment, though. I don't expect advanced users to use them much - we already have 100+ tabs open in FF, one more won't hurt. It's more for new users that aren't aware of the apps infra puts up, like the "for users section" at apps.fp.o.
