Following up on breaking out createHTMLNotification() and
createNotification() vs combining them into one large API - I believe the
intent is that a given user agent may not support all types of
notifications
(for example, a mobile phone application may only support text + icon
notifications, not HTML notifications). Having these APIs broken out
separately allows the UA to communicate whether it supports one or the
other
to the web app (a UA that does not support HTML notifications would leave
createHTMLNotification() undefined).
If that is the idea createHTMLNotification() should be on a separate
supplemental interface that user agents on platforms that support HTML
notifications can implement to make it clear it might not be available and
that is somewhat separate. (Not sure whether I agree we need HTML
notifications though, especially for v1.)
