Re: [w3c/manifest] Moves BeforeInstallPrompt and related text to a non-normative annex. (#843)

> it will just confuse everyone

I don't see how it could be confusing when it clearly explains what it's doing in that section.

It would be more confusing if developers went looking for the text specifying this feature which has been in multiple browsers for years and can't find it anywhere.

> and somewhat circumvents the standardization process.

I hear you. We don't want random proprietary APIs living inside of standards documents as a general rule. This case is a bit different, though, because it has been exposed through multiple browsers (even if their implementation is not independent) for many years while being in the standard. It's more of a "soft touch" to downgrade it from being in the standard to being in a non-normative annex, than removing it entirely.
