Re: [w3ctag/spec-reviews] Review of WakeLock API and suitability for overall platform requested by 31 August 2016 (#126)

> Would the generic sensors API provide continuous data even if the application is backgrounded? Sorry I'm not so familiar with how generic sensor events work.

We have some future plans for that (involving both background and service worker-based scenario), but nothing concrete to share for now.

FWIW, using a wake-lock for geolocation or pedometer use cases (e.g. running app) would be such a battery-drainer it's a no-go from the start.
