Re: [w3c/manifest] Manifest format should support some way of including a splash screen (#9)

No, no... ok, yeah :)

Ok, yeah... Not talking about that. I would be against such a thing... it's would be super complicated to get right and know when to take the screenshot... like a selfie, but for web apps :)  

> My idea isn't needed if the browser can get to first render, from cold, in 100ms.

I'd rather we (browsers) get to the above.
