[w3c/manifest] Extending the manifest with 'vendor-specific' properties (#560)

I am currently developing a platform for developing HTML5 games, and one of the things devs using it are required to do is to create a manifest.json that specifies some information about the game. At first I thought of just using the Web App Manifest, since many properties (name, scope, icons...) are similar, but others are very specific to my use case (fps, screen resolution...).

I still think it would be really nice to let my users just have a W3C compliant manifest.json for their web game, and let them extend it with additional properties to provide the additional info my platform would need.

That is why I was wondering if there are any plans for allowing 'vendor-specific', additional properties to the added to the manifest while still following the standard. IMO that would help to make the web manifest more powerful, allowing it to specify information that is only relevant in certain web apps.
