Re: [w3c/manifest] Adding protocol handlers (#972)

Moving to general discussion here...

It feels like it would still be potentially overwhelming. 

This is why registration via the existing APIs seems favorable to me. It already supports arbitrary same-origin URL registrations with good error handling? 

So, fundamental question is: what significant value does this add over the existing protocol handler API? Also, if the PWA is not installed, won't developers need to call `.registerProtocolHandler()` anyway to support users who don't want the app on their home screen, but still want protocol handler capabilities?
