Re: [w3c/manifest] Provide a way to not open a link in the PWA, in the moment (#989)

I was hoping to make a suite of separate PWAs which are all tied to the same user account system. The idea was that I could include an affordance for switching between apps, similar to Google's app selector, and those links to other apps would open their respective PWA. Likewise you could open a link to manage your account which would take you back to the browser / "hub" site.

I'm gathering that this isn't feasible on mobile today. If I include a link to another one of my apps within an app, the second app will only open in a webview. That's going to be prohibitively confusing.

I'm not seeing a way to execute on this concept given the functionality available today, which is disappointing. By and large the limitations of PWAs have been avoidable, but once I hit one there's basically no getting by it.
