I'm still soliciting a feedback.

For now, I can say we're very much concerned about any impact on battery
life since that's no.1 thing our users care about. Since even a few
percentage point of battery life regression would be a major concern,
there *needs
to be extraordinarily good reasons* to add this API; I just don't think any
of the use cases listed in https://w3c.github.io/wake-lock/#introduction are
compelling enough to meet such a standard.
