Re: [w3c/manifest] Ability to dynamically change app icon (#663)

For what it’s worth, weather applications may be another use case. Rather than displaying a potentially misleading ☀️or 🌤 all the time, a weather application could show ⛈, ❄️, or whatever, depending on current conditions. 

Clock applications have already been mentioned but are worth pointing at again. A clock icon that always shows 1:30 pm would  merely seem unpolished at best, but it may actually mislead the user at worst. 

Basically, anything with an app icon that already depicts some state would benefit from updatable app icons.
