Re: [w3ctag/spec-reviews] Presentation API Request for Feedback (#61)

> The SSWG would like to reference the TAG's Private Mode spec under the expectation that Private Mode would define how to start up a browsing context in a "clean state" (e.g., empty database, local storage, cookies, etc.). If the document would be able to define that (and be ready in a reasonable time), then it may be reasonable for the Second Screen spec to reference it. Otherwise (and perhaps more likely?), the Second Screen spec would need to be explicit in what states it expects the various features it cares about to be in. Either way, we need to reply back with our suggestion after discussing this.

@tidoust, @anssiko: At our most recent TAG f2f we discussed an alternate approach to our previously planned "privacy mode" spec. Given some pushback from implementers against standardizing the specifics of what constitutes privacy mode in browsers directly, @mnot has proposed a document that may be an incremental step toward that eventual goal. The document, aimed at spec authors, should provide a framework from which to consider the various user data controls that are made available in browsers. It is our hope that such a document could be a good reference for any spec concerned with how their feature is impacted by user privacy concerns. As the Second Screen group gave the TAG specific feedback about wanting to reference a privacy mode spec, we hope you'll take a look at this document and provide us feedback on whether it would be useful to you as a reference.

Thanks so much!
