I agree that there is no silver bullet for apps, and Hoodie does not try to be one. Our main goal is to enable as many people as possible to build real, data driven apps.
Think of it this way: if you're able today to build the frontend of an app in days, then you've all it takes. Our maxim is: if you get jQuery, you should be able to build apps with user accounts, data synchronization, emails ... the basic, boring stuff.
