Re: [w3c/manifest] Add optional `translations` member (#676)

> I actually don't think we should allow this. If you allow it, you have to mandate it (since we can't have different user agents doing different things). If we're talking about _all_ members being localizable, then that means, for example, we have to allow the possibility that English and French have different scope URLs, and that means we might need to update our link capturing logic when the user changes their OS language. That is a huge complexity spike for us.

I understand, and in fact, while I didn't comment on the icons sections, I also think that icons should not be localized. Never though of having different scopes URLs. Thanks for pointing it out.
