[w3ctag/design-reviews] Suggested file name and location for the File System Access API. (#598)

HIQaH! QaH! TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of suggested file name and location for the File System Access API.

When initially shipping the File System Access API we shipped a bare minimum API surface
for showing file and directory pickers. We're now proposing adding a couple of frequently
requested (and commonly supported in other file picker APIs) options to let websites
provide a couple more opportunities to influence the behavior of the file and directory pickers.
In particular we want to let websites give suggestions for the name and location of files and
directories that are being saved or loaded.

  - Explainer¹ (minimally containing user needs and example code): https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/blob/main/SuggestedNameAndDir.md

  - Security and Privacy self-review²: https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/blob/main/security-privacy-questionnaire.md

      - And specifically https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/pull/270 contains changes made to this document for these features.
  - GitHub repo (if you prefer feedback filed there): https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access

  - Primary contacts (and their relationship to the specification):
      - Marijn Kruisselbrink (@mkruisselbrink), Google
  - Organization/project driving the design: Google/Chromium
  - External status/issue trackers for this feature (publicly visible, e.g. Chrome Status): https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/6013006146174976


Further details:

  - [X] I have reviewed the TAG's [API Design Principles](https://w3ctag.github.io/design-principles/)
  - The group where the incubation/design work on this is being done (or is intended to be done in the future): WICG
  - The group where standardization of this work is intended to be done ("unknown" if not known): unknown
  - Existing major pieces of multi-stakeholder review or discussion of this design: https://github.com/WICG/file-system-access/pull/261

  - Major unresolved issues with or opposition to this design:
  - This work is being funded by: Google


We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please delete all but the desired option):
