In the implementation of Web Manifest (bug 1003890), Gaia needs to fetch a Web Manifest and in some cases after parsing the manifest then call mozApps.install() with the same manifest URL. In order to prevent the manifest having to be fetched twice, it has been suggested that it might be a good idea to have mozApps.install() take a parsed manifest object as an optional argument. We would also need to pass the manifestURL so that Gecko can check for any subsequent app updates.
