    The one thing I hope Apple has added to the pass framework is the ability to semantically define a barcode area.

    This would enable them to finally have Wallet show ONLY that rectangle at a suddenly blinding brightness level (on HDR displays) for the scanner, rather than cranking up the entire screen.

      Wait, is that a thing? They can light up just a portion of the screen?

        Technically proper HDR is supposed to do exactly that. Doesn't matter if it's a pass or an image on a website.
