Re: [w3c/manifest] support "Continue where you left off" and "Open a specific page or set of pages" (#794)

We actually had PWA session restore shipped in Chrome 76 on desktop (relaunch any open PWAs when you restarted your browser). However, we had to unship the feature because it had some bad side effects (removing all of your non-PWA session history in some cases). We're still committed to doing this, it's just more complicated than we initially thought. See https://crbug.com/938759.

More generally, we see this as a browser level feature controlled by users - it's unclear whether there's much more utility to be gained from allowing developers to specify continuation URLs over simply apply the existing session restore logic that takes the user straight back to where they were when they closed the browser.
