[webkit-dev] Request for Position - Installed Web applications as URL Handlers

[Diego Gonzalez via webkit-dev]

Hello webkit-dev,

We would like to request for WebKit's position on a proposal to installed Web 
applications to register for URL handling through the Web Application 
Manifest.

- Chrome Status page with links to more documentation: Progressive Web Apps 
as URL Handlers - Chrome Platform Status 
(chromestatus.com)
- Sample app: Hello! 
(luhuangmsft.github.io)

Summary
Developers can create a more engaging experience if installed Web apps are able 
to register as handlers for https URLs. We proposed a scheme for an installed 
Web apps to register for URL handling behavior through the web application 
manifest, such that it may launched when matching URL links are activated. 
Native applications today on many operating systems (Windows, Android, iOS, 
MacOS) are able to register for URL handling.

This work targets the Web Application Manifest specification 
(https://www.w3.org/TR/appmanifest/).
 Changes will include recognizing a "url_handlers" field in the manifest to 
register for URL handling, as well as adding a "Web App Origin Association" 
supplement to the spec. that specifies how registered origins are validated.

Status
Web app URL handling is being implemented in the Chromium browser as an 
experimental feature.
