Re: [w3c/manifest] App shortcuts / actions (#582)

> Could you mention where the navigation will happen when the user clicks the shortcut in the `Responding to shortcut activation` section? On Android it'll replace the existing context if there is one or create a new one if there isn't. And on desktop it will always open a new window.

Agreed. In Windows, there is something called an [activation event](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/launch-resume/activate-an-app), which is how Twitter handles it within their PWA. This is very similar to the proposed launch event, but there are a few notable differences I plan to bring up in that discussion.
