+          If the <a>scope</a> member is not present in the manifest, it
+          defaults to the parent path of the <a>start_url</a> member. For
+          example, if <a>start_url</a> is <code>/pages/welcome.html</code>, and
+          <a>scope</a> is missing, the navigation scope will be
+          <code>/pages/</code> on the same origin. If <a>start_url</a> is
+          <code>/pages/</code> (the trailing slash is important!), the
+          navigation scope will be <code>/pages/</code>.

The language about "new URL" isn't quite correct. You actually need to invoke the URL parser. Otherwise I tend to agree with @mgiuca on the approach.
