Not a Windows-only feature, here it is using Chrome on ArchLinux.

Seems to be a Windows-only feature.

@jonathansampson do you have more information about application mode?

@bsclifton Not at this time. It _appears_ to just a full-window webview. The page's favicon is used in the taskbar, instead of the browser's icon. Not much more than that.
