Hi folks!

tl;dr: I would like to change the current trusted UI by:

1. A system dialog enabled via hardware buttons.
This is tempting, but I don't know if UX likes it if the home button has
an implicit second meaning.
2. Extra information about web apps.
I think the cards view (task manager?) is a possible good place for
this. Paul said on IRC he remembered that there was a demo or a mock-up
where you could flip the app card and see some info about it. That would
be interesting.
Card view could be a good place for this. In fact, we're already showing
the URL of the page being shown on the cardview when the domain is
different than the app domain. That is, if you're on the app
"Fantabulous App" and the content being shown belongs to the app, then
the card view shows "Fantabulous App", but if it's showing a page from
http://anotherdifferentdomain.com then it shows
http://anotherdifferentdomain.com (or as much as that as it fits on the
window).

The problem I see with that is that there should be also something on
what the user is actually seeing that tells him that something is
different about that dialog, that it comes from the system. The idea
behind Trusted UI was not as much rethinking the SSL indicator as to
have some way of telling the user 'hey, you can trust this dialog
content because it's been loaded by the OS, nor by any app'. Or more
concise: This dialog is owned by the operating system.

That's a much simple trust decision. Showing the information on the card
view can fill the same role (we can say there also the owner of the
window) but it hides it from plain sight.



If all is lost and nobody wants to innovate, we could still display a
lock in the notification bar that indicates the status of the current app :(
And the problem with this (and also with the rocket bar) is that a full
screen app can imitate this without much problem (they can even copy the
code we use to show that :)).


Best regards,

Antonio
