Re: [manifest] A means to control how long a splash screen should remain on screen. (#372)

@mounirlamouri : First paint doesn't mean you can control what's being rendered. Take an example : Polymer. You may get the first paint event, then tear down the splashscreen however the UI may be in a broken state because the bindings are not yet evaluated. One could say that I should implement some complicated logic to make sure that I don't show partial state in my UI but then what's the point of the Polymer bindings {{ }} and the declarative syntax when suddendly I need to add a bunch of JS code to create the bindings afterwards. Again this is convenience.
