(as an aside, good to see this; it wasn't there last I looked, so steps in the right direction at least)
Glad to hear there's a plan to add those APIs back! Wasn't aware of that. For Midi/USB/BT/Generic Sensor/et. al....the counterfactual matters and nobody I've talked to at Mozilla seems to want to really engage with that.

Generic sensors and the related APIs are being discussed. WebVR needs it etc. There aren't concrete plans yet. The security standpoint for Midi/USB/BT make sense to me, giving the web the ability to exploit the platform itself or bypass SOP is something we should take seriously.

I know you perhaps didn't mean to imply we (and I) don't take SOP seriously, but oy.

Also, doesn't "whitelist" create the same "DRM!!!!!!!" concern that Mozilla raised re: the original CORS-like system for WebUSB?

Perhaps yeah. I only have participated in the Generic Sensor and friends discussions tbh.
