Just a suggestion, but could one solution be to deprecate the `browser` display mode in the manifest specification? This may seem drastic, but does any user agent actually implement an application context with browser display mode as distinct to an ordinary browsing context? I've never been clear on the difference. Are there any implementations that apply any other manifest members if the display mode is `browser`? I realise that it's currently the default display mode in the fallback chain, but in practice is there actually any difference between a browsing context and an application context with browser display mode?
