Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Add name param to Clients.openWindow() method (#711)

asutherland left a comment (w3c/ServiceWorker#711)

I think https://github.com/w3c/ServiceWorker/issues/1475 is probably a more general way to address the overall use-case characterized by https://github.com/w3c/ServiceWorker/issues/711#issuecomment-113167221.  A tab/window that is serving as a single-point of use for specific window/document-only APIs can announce itself via client state with web locks allowing for a reliable "election" so that there aren't multiple window clients claiming the responsibility.

That said, my concerns on that issue about the need to constrain the amount of information in the state and to reliably specify that does remain.  (That also would be an issue for this proposal, but since the name would presumably be constrained to be a string, it is easier to specify a limit on that.)
