Do we not have any official signals for LNA generally? I looked at 
https://chromestatus.com/feature/5152728072060928 and see an I2P for 
Mozilla, but nothing for WebKit. Can we file something if not?

Also, can we update this chromestatus entry with both, once we have them?

Firefox is shipping their LNA implementation, first to their users 
with Enhanced Tracking Protection on.

permissions-firefox

We have heard nothing from webkit. We did a request for position with the 
first LNA launch

https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/520

and annevk has posted some on the github spec repo about the permission 
names (https://github.com/WICG/local-network-access/issues/17), but we 
haven't heard anything else from them. Is this something where we should 
proactively ping them?

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that 
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

No

Why not


For this specific fix, we tested with browser tests.

In general for LNA, we have some basic WPT's checked in (
https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:
third_party/blink/web_tests/external/wpt/fetch/local-network-access/), but 
we don't have everything tested in WPT that we do in chromium browser 
tests. Its something we've been meaning to do but haven't gotten around to 
due to other competing priorities around LNA (most notably the split 
permissions).


Not having WPTs for this increases the interoperability risk (e.g. 
Increases the probability that Firefox folks forget about this particular 
part).
Can you bump up the priority of adding these WPTs?

I suspect that our robot overlords are likely to do a good job 
"translating" the browser tests to WPTs..
