Hello, the non-standard Mobile Identity API [1] allows a privileged web application to obtain a verified phone number [1]. It is only available on Firefox OS and it was added with FxOS Hello client requirements in mind [2]. Unfortunately, the FxOS Hello client didn't last long and now according to the data obtained through [3] we have no consumer of this API. Given its null usage and given that we are trying to get rid of as much B2G specific and non-standard APIs as possible, I am proposing to get rid of this API along with its associated server part.
The patch to remove the client part from the tree is available at [4].
