> Another challenge, especially on big screens, is the way the permission prompt gets commonly displayed: above the line of death[0], that is, outside of the area of the browser window that the app can draw onto.

So the proposal is to... put the permissions grant flow _below_ the line of death? Permissions grants _should_ break out of the untrusted context! It's a privilege escalation that only the browser (and its associated UI) should be able to grant!
