Tag Review: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/337
Summary
Extends the Contacts API to allow developers to request contact addresses and icons as well.

Goals for experimentation
Is the address/icon information made available through the API sufficient to satisfy developer use-cases?
Specifically when sharing addresses, all available address information is stored in the addressLine attribute, but the broken down address attributes (postalCode, city, country, etc) are sometimes not available and left empty.
Experimental timeline
M80-M82
Any risks when the experiment finishes?
No, the shared information is one-off, users can choose not to share the information while it’s enabled, and there is an API for checking the supported contact properties.
Ongoing technical constraints
None
Will this feature be supported on all five Blink platforms supported by Origin Trials (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, and Android)?
No. The feature and solution are platform agnostic, but we only provide an implementation for Android for now, where the problem is significantly more severe than on other platforms.
