Re: [w3c/manifest] Define "web application" (Issue #1097)

It's funny, my attempt was to make it as broad a definition as possible. Wikipedia certainly has the capacity for interactivity depending on how you use it, but I was thinking even a static documentation site could be a web app if set up to be used offline and installed using manifest details.

That said, I get where you're coming from and I support the definition being focused on how the manifest plays into it. In my mind, something is a web app if you intend it to be or a user believes it to be. All other distinctions are moot. So I like the tautology to be honest as it fits the purpose relative to this document.

+1 for “For the purposes of this document, a “web application” is the object described by the members of a Web App Manifest.” (or similar)
