Isn't that the same issue as Web Activities/Web Intents?
Not really. The use cases around web activities/intents are mostly around user facing interactions (for example, opening a file in a web application, or using a web application to send an email/message) whereas the current proposal is about a client-side programmatic interface between Web applications. The version of this use case with the assistance of a server has been around on the Web for a long time (see the various RESTful APIs published by various web services these days.) The current service worker spec allows for simple caching of the results of those API calls without the ability of doing anything smarter. The current discussion is about full blown communication between SWs for various websites which will allow them to actually synthesize a response.
