Working group decision to adopt

Proposal

Link to proposal (preferably in the proposals repository). You should have at least an unofficial proposal in hand and/or have discussed the API within the Web Incubator Community Group (WICG) before sending an intent to migrate. If your proposal is not yet at this stage of maturity, feel free to solicit feedback informally. You may be asked to create a github repository if there isn't one.

Ongoing technical constraints

What technical constraints will be added to user agents implementing this feature?

Will this feature be supported in all environments (desktop, mobile, tablets, TV, eBooks, automotive, etc.)?
