Re: [presentation-api] Same-screen presentation (#476)

@anssiko, I'll let @dlibby- respond but my understanding is that he is not talking about mirroring content at all, merely about being able to select the **current** screen as the presentation display in the selection menu that the user agent renders when `PresentationRequest.start` is called. Also, goal does not seem to be about creating a picture-in-picture window (or a separate tab), but rather to run the presentation in full screen.

In other words, it would be about allowing `PresentationRequest.start` to act as a local call to `window.open` followed by a call to `requestFullscreen`. I vaguely recall discussions about that but cannot find a pointer either. What I do remember is that we discussed the possibility for an application to add presentation displays that would be under its control to the selection menu (see #61). This was much more for cloud-based displays than to be able to reuse the current display, but perhaps that could be a useful direction to look at?
