Comment: We should remove the Location SMART launch parameter. This was discussed in smart-on-fhir/smart-on-fhir.github.io#131, but it looks like there's a few references to it in the version of the spec that's being balloted. Specifically these two statements in the "Scopes and Launch Context" page: "�At which clinic, hospital ward, or patient room is the end-user currently working?
" and the defined scope of "launch/location".
Summary: Remove location launch param and scope.

Josh's Triage Notes

Merge with theme: "Omit Needless Launch Contexts"

Disposition

Persuasive with mod.

Given their limited use, standardized concepts for "location" and "resource" should be removed from the specification. "smart_style_url" should be marked as "experimental" to indicate that there may be backwards-incompatible changes to the style document pointed to by the smart_style_url.
