This was the second thing that came to mind for me. In addition to that, it seems reasonable to assume that people who bothered getting your app in the first place are most likely the people who spend more time on your website.
But the first thing I thought, I thought upon reading the title. It was: "Yes, indeed! I do enjoy your site more if it isn't littered with ads and navigation bars and lists of related articles and sidebars and comment threads". I have written about 50 element hiding rules and Stylish scripts for news sites that I visit regularly, just to get rid of all of the stuff that distracts me from reading the article I came to read.
That's fine for geeks like me, but for everyone else, I can think of few things that would improve the web more than a serious reduction of this kind of clutter. I was a little disappointed in the OP that it did not talk more about this.

This is a HTML5 [web] app.
I believe that you are correct in what you posit, but it is not applicable here.
