Name of API: Web Bluetooth API
Reference: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674737
https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/WebBluetooth

Brief purpose of API: The aim of WebBluetooth is to establish a DOM API to set 
up and  communicate with Bluetooth devices.  This includes setting properties 
on  adapters and devices, scanning for devices, bonding, and socket 
initialization for audio and communication. 

General Use Cases:

Inherent threats: Privacy, access to sensitive user devices, de-anonimization 
based on bluetooth state

Threat severity: high

== Regular web content (unauthenticated) ==
Use cases: None
Authorization model for normal content: None
Authorization model for installed content: None
Potential mitigations: 

== Trusted (authenticated by publisher) ==
Use  cases: None
Authorization model: None
Potential mitigations: 

== Certified (vouched for by trusted 3rd party) ==
Use cases:
Read bluetooth adapter state
Start/Stop device discovery
List discoverd devices
Pair with device
Authorization model: Implicit
Potential mitigations:  Status indicator showing active bluetooth connection, 
user can click the  status indicator to cancel the connection.  Any limit on 
types of devices?

Notes: Non-certified use cases are out of scope for 1.0.  We will consider 
those for a subsequent release.
