Re: [w3c/permissions] Only allow permissions.request() during user interaction (#77)

> Ideally, both Frank and Charlie would get an HTML page like:

@noncombatant You're missing the key difference: Charlie suffers this inconvenience once, Frank every time.

You're also missing that Frank is not Charlie. His only problem isn't that he can't find the "Always allow" button. Frank actually *doesn't want to* trust this site with persistent permission, thus he represents a true choice, not just the user of another browser. This is the default in Firefox.

Clearly, automatic, gesture-less camera/mic enablement onload is desirable for a good user experience, as no-one is proposing imposing a user gesture when persistent permissions are granted.
