That seems like a place in the spec where we would like others (or 
other specs) to be able to define extensions. A similar example that 
comes to mind is the work on the [Generic Sensor 
API](https://w3c.github.io/sensors/). From an IDL perspective, it 
defines a base `Sensor` interface and let other specs define concrete 
sensors interface that inherit from `Sensor`. It seems a good idea to 
follow the same path here.

I agree. We probably do not want a fixed enumeration for application 
types in any case.
