CfC: split Wake Lock API spec into two, review by 6 Mar 2020

Hi DAS WG,

This is Call for Consensus to split the Wake Lock API spec [1] into two separate specs: "screen wake lock" and "system wake lock" (names for illustrative purposes only).

The rationale for the split is to allow the screen wake lock [2] subset of the spec that has strong use cases, implementation experience, and web developer support to advance along the W3C Rec Track on its own merits, while allow the system wake lock [3] to be further developed in parallel before its advancement.

If you have any concerns, please provide your feedback in [4] by 6 Mar 2020. For +1s, please use the thumbs up reaction in the respective issue.

Thanks,

-Anssi (DAS WG co-chair)
