Re: [w3c/manifest] Integration with service workers (#161)

> Ignore how you think it works for a moment. If I added foopay.com's site to my homescreen, would it have the same icon, name, description etc etc as the payment app?

I'm not sure how to answer that question. Are you asking if I think it should be the same or are you asking if there are limitations to it being the same or different?

You're ignoring (in your example) the fact that neither ServiceWorker nor app manifest are limited to 1 per origin. A mistake, in both cases, in my opinion.

So, to answer your question: I think these things should be merged. If I visit `foopay.com` and I am prompted to install something, that means either "add foopay.com to my homescreen" or "register the foopay.com payment app" but not both.

The confusion and potential security implications for users if they are not seems dangerous to me.
