What do you mean by lifecycle and fallbacks? Also you just said that building in multimedia was the problem and when I point out libraries are easy to use and modular you say that C++ is the problem.

I think you are giving too much credit to people using electron. It really seems to be mostly people who haven't really looked at their options avoiding native languages at the expense of the user. If all someone knows is javascript and they don't really care about their users' lag or resources, then electron is any easy choice.
