I don't think that will be an issue. Scopes interaction is very
simplistic. If you need to provide any deeper interaction beyond just
searching some data to look at, you're almost certainly going to have to
provide an app (or you're going to rely on the browser working with your
site, and a webapp will provide a better experience there anyway), and
so I think it will be more expected than surprising.
