Re: [w3c/permissions] Drop .request() (#83)

It looks like the request() method is largely based on a 'request-before-use' model, hence requires a stored permission (either granted or denied).  This could lead to potential conflict with per-use permission options for some functionality currently supported in the Firefox and Edge permission models.  

BTW, when users 'dismiss' a user permission ask, it typically means a one-time 'denied'.  It's not clear how that would be reflected in the 'request-before-use' model.  I assume the permission state would stay as 'prompt', although user doesn't really want to be asked again right away.
