Re: [w3c/permissions] A more modest request() (#158)

@annevk I agree with @jyasskin on `requestAccelerometer`. In my view, it's less a request for permission elevation, more a request to turn on the accelerometer (now or forever).

The difference might become apparent if we wanted a `stopAccelerometer` (e.g. to encourage saving resources). A site would probably want to call that without giving up permission.

The specs pointing here seem to have in common that their feature is the firing of certain events, for which there is no obvious control surface or configuration options (at the moment).
