Where are we discussing that? I'd really like to see WebUSB with USB device
IDs are bound to specific origins (through a registry for legacy devices
and through the USB protocol extensions defined in that spec) so that
vendors can host apps that access their devices --- and so that vendor
pages in an <iframe> can define and vend "safe" APIs to any third-party
application. We'd finally have decentralized extensibility for Web APIs to
hardware.
