This is also my observation. Browser UI is on the way to take 
over. Advantages are that they are easy to remote, meaning if you 
have network connection you can run it on another device. Some 
mobile phones have a "hidden" web UI if you connect to them using 
a browser. Another advantage is that web UI scales well with 
different resolutions and aspect ratios. You can also more easily 
find people who have the knowledge making cool looking web 
content, compared to people who know how to make custom UI in Qt 
or C#.

Car infotainment systems often runs the graphics in a browser, 
without many knowing about it. They work similar to FireFox OS, 
you boot directly to the browser.
