Multi-screen Window Placement features

[michaelwasserman]

Hello TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of proposed multi-screen Window Placement features.

Window Placement concerns the creation and movement of windows throughout the set of displays that comprise the overall visual workspace of a device. A brief summary of the active proposal is to support an optional Screen argument in Element.requestFullscreen() and to support multi-screen coordinates in Window.open() and Window.moveTo(). This builds upon the proposed Screen Enumeration API (TAG design review issue here).

• Explainer: https://github.com/webscreens/window-placement/blob/master/EXPLAINER.md
• Security and Privacy self-review: https://github.com/webscreens/window-placement/blob/master/security_and_privacy.md
• GitHub repo (if you prefer feedback filed there): https://github.com/webscreens/window-placement
• Primary contacts (and their relationship to the specification):
  • Mike Wasserman: Google, Chromium implementer, explainer editor
  • W3C Second Screen Community Group: incubator
• Organization/project driving the design: Chromium & W3C Second Screen CG
• External status/issue trackers for this feature (publicly visible, e.g. Chrome Status): Chrome Status, Chromium issue

Further details:

• I have reviewed the TAG's API Design Principles
• The group where the incubation/design work on this is being done (or is intended to be done in the future): Second Screen CG
• The group where standardization of this work is intended to be done: Maybe Second Screen WG
• Existing major pieces of multi-stakeholder review or discussion of this design: Explainer and Github Issues
• Major unresolved issues with or opposition to this design: None, possible future goals?
• This work is being funded by: Google, Intel

You should also know that... There's a lot of room for possible future work in this area...

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as: (only a slight preference, all modes are okay)
🐛 open issues in our GitHub repo for each point of feedback

Thank you!
Mike

Assigning same people as on the Screen Enumeration as these are tightly coupled

You may wish to consider some specific questions, listed in the Screen Enumeration review. Thank you!

I believe this is safe to close, as the proposal has been reviewed in #413
