Comment

Former user (Deleted)setTrayIconNot clear how to support more practical tray icon functionality like menus, animations and more complex events.
We are used to tray icons being entities in their own right to which we can add menus and other behavior. 
Former user (Deleted)GeneralNo native dialogs ?
Maybe I could not find them, but this seems very basic functionality

Also need to preserve snippet tool for pulling in screenshots etc

Former user (Deleted) - There are a couple of dedicated Electron modules for this and the Chrome APIs can be used directly also, not sure about how OpenFin deals with it.

GeneralSeems like a positional wrapper around a standard sub-window, which is fine (we have one too) ...
We cache and reuse hidden sub-window instances behind the scenes, would be interesting to see what OpenFin does.

But we also have a native lightweight notification (think Notifications API (text) + a couple of bits (-browser window overhead))

Should we match the work already done in this area https://www.w3.org/TR/notifications/

Former user (Deleted) - This can (is) used by us on Electron for simple notifications ...
My comments above relate to more complex notifications (rich content floating in a corner of the screen).
