Different Robert here, I don't speak for Mr. Ancell but my
interpretation of his statement was that we need to take the Ubuntu
Core Apps (phone apps) and make them desirable to use on the desktop:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone-coreapps

These apps *already exist*, so it's not like Robert was suggesting
writing all new apps from scratch. Just get them at feature parity
with the GNOME apps they'd be replacing.
