Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Native File System API (#390)

@kenchris and I discussed this during our "Cork" F2F.

The changelog was immensely helpful! Maybe we should make this a recommended practice. Thanks a lot for taking the time to write that.

Apologies that our feedback took so long. This is moving forward fast and it looks like our feedback wasn't timely - but we retroactively looked at WICG/file-system-access#210, and we don't have a strong opinion on whether this should be namespaced or in global. Since the amount of APIs being added is moderately low, it does seem fine to be on global - unless you have plans to add a lot more related to this capability in the future. (Although we don't quite see what is missing, so it would be good to know if you do have such plans.)

We also looked at the D&D integration, and it looks good to us. Good to see this being added, as we can see this improving user experience.

Since this seems to be in good shape, we are happy to consider this review finished, and would love to see the developers start using this. (We did see some misleading press about this, presumably written by someone who hasn't fully read the spec.) One last point - it looks like the work has reached a point where it needs a home (meaning, a working group) - is that something that is being discussed?
