Why do we need more App Information in the Manifest?

TO BE WRITTEN

Interaction with Web Crawlers

Like other web resources, a web app manifest should be accessible to any web browser or web crawler.

If a web app developer wants to inform web crawlers of a desire for the file not to be crawled, the developer MAY do so by including the web app manifest in a robots.txt file. This is further described in the robots.txt protocol. A web app developer could also use the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header.
