Allow a limit of the number of active and persistent anchors #79

Currently the spec does not mention any limit to the number of anchors a site can create. On Quest, there is a significant additional load if a lot of anchors are active so we like to limit how many can be in a scene at a time. For persistence, the browser can only create a limited set of persistent anchors across all origins. We'd like the spec to be updated so the browser is allowed to deleted older anchors to make space for new ones.

We discussed this in today's meeting. The spec will be updated to enforce a guaranteed minimum number of anchors and allow the UA to limit them to a maximum.

When will persistent anchors be supported in Google Chrome?

I think we need to wait until Android supports them.

Is there any Android device that supports persistent anchors now? If not, do you know approximately when Android devices will support this feature?

Quest is Android based :-) As for a general implementation, only Google knows...
