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

I like the idea of browser screenshotting a splashscreen in HTML format — it'd be possible to create responsive splash screens with correct font rendering. I hope the browser could prepare such splash screens immediately (in background) when the app is added to the homescreen, so there's no other splash-placeholder screen before the splash screen.

I think it should be a screenshot from a separate dedicated resource (`/splash.html`), and not a screenshot from `start_url`, because optimizing app for both fast, fully asynchronous startup *and* showing of splash at a time of specific event (like the `load` event) is complicated.
