Re: [w3c/webpayments-payment-apps-api] The relationship between payment apps and service workers (#33)

> The issue is that the relationship between manifests and service workers seems poorly defined

It isn't defined because they're pretty separate. Manifests are taking care of all the things that were previously `<meta>` and `<link>` clogging up the head of the page. It seems like they're being misused here for payments.

> Question to the two of you is, can we come to an agreement about using app manifest with service workers in a way that makes sense for apps where the service worker really is the app or is app manifest just a way to put icons and context on html apps?

I think it's already the latter. If we're already using service worker, what's the justification for adding manifests on top of that?
