Hi webkit-dev:

This is a request for WebKit's position on Capability Delegation.

Capability Delegation defines a mechanism through which a script can
delegate its ability to call a restricted API to another browsing context
it trusts.  This is a generic mechanism, and Chrome is currently looking
into supporting two capabilities (Payment-Request and Fullscreen) in a
cross-origin iframe through this generic mechanism.  See more details in
the explainer <https://github.com/WICG/capability-delegation/>.

   - Proposed spec <https://wicg.github.io/capability-delegation/spec.html>
   - WICG issue tracker
   <https://github.com/WICG/capability-delegation/issues>
   - Chrome-status entries for Payment Request
   <https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5708770829139968> and Fullscreen
   <https://chromestatus.com/feature/6441688242323456>.

Thanks.
