[Badging] WebAppsWG TPAC F2F agenda (Fukuoka, Sep 19-20 2019)

[fallaciousreasoning]

draft of topics to talk about at the WebApps WG.

Spec Proposal

Problem

In order to provide a first class experience for web apps, it should be possible to integrate deeply with native operating system APIs.

The main use case for the badging API is to provide applications (such as a Chat application) a low impact alternative to notifications. For example, in Slack, it might be desirable to not show a notification in a busy room, just update the application's badge count (direct messages and @ mentions could still display a notification).
