> Using a well known URL creates a large migration problem: all currently installed PWAs that don't already conform to the well-known URL would be broken, and for many sites, fixing that problem would require a site re-architecture that might not be that likely to happen. How would that problem be practically addressed? We'd have to start warning and ask developers to migrate over the next N years. Or a browser vendor would need to take the compat hit. Alternatively, we see what percentage would be impacted and make some determination based on that. > Additionally, removing fragments, queries, and arbitrary paths removes a significant amount of positive utility (the classic tradeoff of the design of URLs). How could you replicate that utility? Those we would need to look at on a case-by-case basis and see if we can provide the same utility in some other way. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
