Re: [w3c/manifest] Integration with service workers (#161)

I think we have strayed way off track here. My original proposal was that payment apps could be a use case for motivating that app manifests be used to provide meta-data when registering a ServiceWorker.

I still think there is value in re-using the data model from appmanifest to describe the meta-data about a payment app (icon, labels etc) but we can't use the appmanifest spec directly because it couples the use of the manifest data model tightly to it's own installation algorithms.

This is a pity given that in most cases a payment app is likely to be far closer to the metaphor of an app as understood by most people than anything currently using app manifest.
