Based on discussions around this topic I've drafted a very experimental
section introducing a bb element.
The bb element is expected to be styled much like an a element by

The way I think of standalone(*) Web applications is that they should
work well in the browser context, but be able to provide progressive
enhancement when in standalone mode. For example, native applications
have custom
