This would be sooo much worse from a UI point of view. All nice OS features (good text rendering, uniform text editing interface, accessibility, transparency) would all get chucked out the window.
I also don't think Godot is inherently more performant for any random UI than Electron is. It happens that most Godot apps are performant because they're made by the type of people who want to use videogame engines and thus care about performance. Electron can definitely have great performance when the developers care about performance (VSCode).
I say all this as someone who's worked on game engines before.
