Re: [w3c/manifest] Add a unique identifier for a PWA (#586)

+1 for allowing for the modification of the start_url, and the ability to set an identifier.

As developers of large apps, we have two use cases this would help solve:
1) We would like to be able to change our start_url, so we can add a tracking parameter. This also helps with a potential future migration of one of our app's start page.
2) We also have apps that don't have a stable manifest url, where an explicit identifier field would be needed. Some of our apps use a versioning model for the manifest url. We are also considering using XSRF tokens in the manifest url, to allow apps to generate per-user manifests securely (eg: dogfooding or A/B experimenting certain manifest changes).
