Contacts API: Security and Privacy Considerations

The latest release of the W3C Contacts API Working Draft [1] includes a section on "Security and Privacy Considerations" [2] which is "inspired" by the GeoLocation API [3].

Could be a good time to look at generalising these "Considerations" for our IG NOTE [4].
