I got an email from someone asking about whether the Email Delivery Push Notifications <https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-jmap-emailpush-03.html> should be extended to add support over the SSE push channel and/or WebSockets if also supporting RFC8887 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8887/>. On the one hand I can see the consistency argument, but on the other it seems simpler to keep it just over the PushSubscription channel, which is what's needed for the primary use case of mobile devices that have heavy restrictions on push notifications. What do other people think? Cheers, Neil.
