Re: [manifest] Are "hosted apps" in scope? (#340)

@marcosc - please correct me if I'm wrong - your question actually refers to applications that are already installed (preinstalled, or whatever), but whose code has never been run on the device?
If so, then I think you abused the notion of "hosted app" :-)

You are asking for propositions of features that would be useful in the specific scenario where the UA/device processes the manifest file before it has the chance to load the app itself:
* preinstallation
* app stores pushing manifests for third party apps (not currently supported)
* installation from a local package
?
