Re: [w3c/manifest] Add id member to manifest (#988)

> Also a manifest update can only happen when there is a matching ID. But I am not sure if the app can know whether a local web app is updated with latest manifest through network requests.

I think, similar to the 'match' case I outlined above, this would rely on getting a 'matching' id in the served manifest after browsing data was cleared. The serviceworker could tell if there was a match & an update if the icons are fetched, for example.

However, we throttle manifest updates to 1 per day. So the site gets one guess a day at the user id.
