As mentioned in earlier discussions about persistent workers,
permissioning UI is a major issue.
Indeed, the most difficult issue here is security and the
permissions UI, which you haven't addressed at all.
Currently, when you close a browser tab, the application in that tab
is gone. This is a very important user expectation that we can't
just break.
I share this concern. Violating this expectation seems like it could
be a vector for malware, in a way that a permissions dialog would not
meaningfully address.
