799431 - Handle app switching during a Web Activity handling

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::System::Window Mgmt, defect)

Description

[Mounir Lamouri (:mounir)]

If the app in the foreground is handling a Web Activity, we should have a behaviour regarding app switching. Doing so can break the activity flow (if app A launches B for an activity and the users goes back to A, what should we do?) but also can creates bug (as soon as an app isn't in foreground, it can be killed).

My suggestion would be to do:
- if an activity should return a value, as soon as it is no longer in foreground, the activity should be cancelled and the system app will have to fire an error event;
- if an activity doesn't return a value, we should have sent a success event when the app is started, so we don't need any special behaviour.
