Comment (by sysrqb):

 Oh, and these homescreen icons are cleaned up/deleted when the app is
 uninstalled, right?

 [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_Web_Apps | Progressive Web
 Apps]] allow "installing" a webapp (some minimal version of a website) as
 an app on a phone/tablet (Android, iOS, ...). Basically, they're platform
 independent apps, using HTML/CSS/JS. This sounds useful, but if a user
 installs a PWA using TBA and then clicks the icon on their homescreen,
 does it open in TBA or in Firefox or does it let the user choose? This
 blog [1] shows there is a difference between the PWA homescreen-icon
 created by Chrome and created by Firefox, so the homescreen-icon probably
 links to the app that originally installed it, but we should make sure
 these nifty little programs don't introduce a complete proxy bypass
 because the user installs the app with TBA and then opens it with Fennec.
