Yes, we already support W3C web app manfiests in our prototype, and it's a key part of the implementation. A manifest provides metadata for a website as a whole, whereas Linked Data provides metadata to a particular web page. When you pin a whole site we use the manifest (and fall back to other metadata when not available), and when you pin a page we use Linked Data (and fall back to other metadata when not available).
