Re: [w3c/manifest] Adding the webapp's badge to the manifest (#480)

Wouldn't the platform member be rather prone to misuse? That is, some parties/platforms would probably use other platforms' icons then, because developers can't specify (or even know) all existing and future platforms (esp. the smaller ones). Furthermore, platforms might change what style they use with new major versions.

I think this should be defined more as style or maybe purpose. A small monochrome icon like this could be used on many platforms and in many places.

Maybe it also helps to look at how Apple currently solves this for their use case (even supporting an icon color): https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariWebContent/pinnedTabs/pinnedTabs.html
