reillyeon has just created a new issue for https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth:

== Service worker support for scanning ==
An equivalent to `watchAdvertisements()` which fires an event in a Service Worker when an advertisement is received.

**Use case:** Allow the user agent to detect in the background when a device supported by a previously visited site has come back into range and offer the opportunity for the user to reopen the page to connect to the device. This is similar in concept to the Background Sync API.

This is a subset of/related to the request in #6.
