Re: [w3c/manifest] beforeinstallprompt : Prompting user makes it to hard to discern whether the user truly wanted to "install" a web app (#835)

The initial issue was:
> The issue is that if website is asking the user to save it on home screen, that is less of a signal to the web browser / operating system that the user had intentionally done so because some user may just tap through prompts from habit / muscle memory.
But as @tomayac said
> beforeinstallprompt is literally about showing UI to install a web app <ins>at exactly the moment the app developer deems the right moment</ins>
That means User will have to click an "install" element in the webapp UI which will trigger the browser confirmation UI. I don't think the user will "autoclick from habit" in this process.

The real issue is the automatic "mini info bar" which shouldn't be automatic (or shouldn't exist at all) but let the developer decide when he can inform the user that the application is installable (and allow him to install it with the same experience despite browsers differences) is a must have.
