I don't think that Steam would consume less resources if it wasn't a web app. Most of the resources usage there comes from crap loads of high quality images. You can't have hundreds of images in a single window without eating loads of RAM.

Bullshit. Steam works well when CEF isn't working right, like no internet connection. Images are still loaded. It's 100% thier storefront.
