That would be:
https://wicg.github.io/isolation/navmanager.html

However section 5 is now out of date w.r.t. the mechanism described in the
primary doc (https://wicg.github.io/isolation/index.html).  The earlier
sections of the nav manager doc should still provide some useful / relevant
context on the navigation manager concept overall.

I will likely adapt section 5 in my nav manager doc to be consistent with
the approach Emily's described in the primary doc.
