Re: [w3c/push-api] Drop permissionState()'s argument? (Issue #417)

beverloo left a comment (w3c/push-api#417)

The motivation was that a user agent might have granted permission for user visible push messages, but not for invisible ones. This was mirrored in the push permission descriptor for `permissions.query()` for the same reason.

I believe that Chrome OS might've had a case in which this is relevant, other Chrome platforms only consider user visible permission requests & queries. Firefox never supported this according to MDN, so compatibility will be complicated anyway.
