Re: [manifest] Define identity of a web app. (#272)

To clarify, URLs are not their serialized string representations - they are objects. Once a string is parsed to a URL, paths are normalized. Hence, there is no such thing as canonical URLs or resolved URLs. There are just URLs. 

The spec always treats URLs as being in their object form (being parsed from string input) - so adding clarifications like the above wouldn't really help too much.
