Re: [w3c/manifest] Should appinstalled / beforeinstallprompt fire on native app installation? (#514)

True.

> As I put it to Dom, "we aren't the PWA police, just the ticket inspectors." The PWA install banner is a carrot to encourage people to make a PWA. I don't think we should be worried about PWA authors not showing the web app install banner. The web app install banner is the reward for being a PWA, not the other way around.

Ok, so two question still remain: 

1. Implementability: if a browser like Firefox wanted to support this, does Android expose such APIs whereby we can get the callback after referring the installation of a native app from the Play Store? 
1. Support from other browser vendors: @RobDolinMS or @boyofgreen, would this be something Microsoft would be interested in?
