Summary Geolocation should inform the service/controller when each request completes

Currently, Geolocation only calls GeolocationService::stopUpdating() (non-client-based) or GeolocationController::removeObserver() (client-based) when all requests complete. This means that the service/controller can not know when a request that specified enableHighAccuracy completes. As a result, the service/controller may use high accuracy for longer than required. Instead, Geolocation should inform the service/controller when each request completes.

Closing as WONTFIX. This 2010 architectural proposal — that Geolocation should notify the service/controller when each request completes — was never adopted. The Geolocation implementation has since been significantly refactored, and the original architecture described in this bug no longer exists. No further action is appropriate.
