こんにちは TAG-さん!

I'm requesting a TAG review of the Page-Embedded Permission Controls feature.

We propose a semantic permission element with browser-controlled content and styling constraints that ensures a very high level of confidence concerning user intent to make a permission decision on site or OS level. PEPC unifies permission control by providing a clear, consistent, in-page point of access to manage permissions in both the browser & the OS. We believe this solves user problems related to accessibility, context, regret, and more.
