Web Share API - 'Print' option not shown while sharing via Web share test page

Project Member Reported by aska...@chromium.org, Sep 16 2016 
Application Version (from "Chrome Settings > About Chrome"): 55.0.2862.0
Android Build Number (from "Android Settings > About Phone/Tablet"): NRD90S (could be other OSs too)
Device: Nexus 9 (could be all)

Steps to reproduce: 
1. Launch Chrome
2. Turn ON 'Web platform features' flag
3. Navigate to the test page 'https://mgiuca.github.io/web-share/demos/share.html' (tinyurl.com/12share12)
4. Tap on 'Share' button

Observed behavior: 
'Print' option is missing from the options shown for sharing. (Compared to Chrome menu's share options)

Expected behavior: 
Not sure if this is wai. Since we are not sharing the complete page here but just the text or URLs or images.
 

Additional comments: 
Like mentioned above, this might be intentional. Filing the bug just to confirm.

Thanks for the report. I didn't notice we were missing the print option.

It turns out this is specifically added to the share list when using the context menu, which is why it's there when you manually share but not when triggered by the platform. (See onShareMenuItemSelected in chrome/android/java/src/org/chromium/chrome/browser/ChromeActivity.java).

Do we want this for Web Share? I'm going to say "probably", but it's not a high priority (requires a bit of refactoring).

Removing RVG as there is nothing confidential in the report. Moving to M56.
