web: Service worker downloads NOTICES file directly at the start of the application #101828
Description
The first time the web application is started, before the service worker is registered, the NOTICES file is downloaded. Since our application uses some packages, this file is 1.1 MB for us. However, the file is not needed here yet, right? We will use the showAboutDialog(...) function later to display the licenses of the packages. Wouldn't it be enough to download the file when it is needed? 1.1 MB is really a huge amount of data for a file that is not yet needed.
Why was the decision made to include the file here, so it is downloaded before the service worker is started?
