Re: [w3c/manifest] Unbind computed id from start_url (Issue #1148)

@marcoscaceres I agree this is a problem. However, considering the years-long [analysis](https://github.com/philloooo/pwa-unique-id/blob/main/explainer.md) and [discussion](https://github.com/w3c/manifest/issues/586) which arrived at the current solution, do you have an alternative in mind?

The biggest obstacle to changing it seems to be backwards compatibility with existing implementations.

A future Web App Manifest 2.0 specification could potentially make a breaking change. E.g. Make manifest URL the default identifier of a web app (my preference, requiring other significant simplifications), or make the `id` member mandatory (probably a more likely consensus).
