I seem to remember a lot of Windows programs back in the day were webviews (backed by IE of course) and it was the most horrible unprofessional looking thing, especially when an Alert would pop up which revealed it was just an IE page.

Just how far "back in the day are we talking? 'Cause I've see stuff ranging from VB (just VB, no .NET or WinForms) all the way back to MFC based UIs back in _my_ day. :)
I just feel like we should get our timescales calibrated.
IMHO, I guess for 'us' (this community of savvy power-users/developers) they'll be flaky when it comes to logging-in whilst switching apps to generate passwords and 2FA codes...
But to the average user that reuses the same login and password on several websites, it'll probably be good enough.
Webviews are okay on mobile though.
