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

Good point that using manifest_url is more linkable. Can you give an example use case that having the ID being a resolvable URL is needed/better? 

Re: manifest_url versioning, If I understand it correctly, doing 301 redirect, or add an "import" syntax means that: the document will always still reference the original manifest, so user agents will keep the same previous ID for the app, and always do another round trip to fetch the latest content?

Note: we also still have the use case of specifying manifest as data url.
