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

I believe all "good site" developers care about is the [BeforeInstallPromptEvent.prompt()
](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/BeforeInstallPromptEvent/prompt) method. If the `beforeinstallprompt` event goes away from the specs, so be it. I agree it feels awkward to have to `preventDefault()` to offer a "good site" UX. But please w3c, keep a spec to manually prompt the install.

@rniwa In Safari, "Add to home screen" is hidden at the secondary level of the share tray. I think that says it all about Webkit's vision on PWAs. But I'd love to be proven otherwise and I'm sorry if this is not the right channel to discuss it.
