[manifest] Allow multiple application contexts per app (#294)

Currently it appears that an application is limited to a single application context per app. The application context is created when the app is launched, calls to window.open and hyperlinks with target=_blank can only open a browsing context, navigations to URLs within the scope of an app inside a browsing context will never result in an application context being created.

As an app developer I would like to be able to create multiple application contexts for a web app in the same way that I can create multiple browsing contexts for a web site. When I call window.open() or use a hyperlink with target=_blank to a URL within the scope of the app, I would like the newly created browsing context to be an application context.

In other words, I would like multiple windows per app.
