> How does this compare to the portal service that was recently added for Flatpak and so on? Do we really need both?

Portal service is a limited API for Flatpak containers that internally
forwards to Geoclue. Without Flatpak runtime that API is not available.

In contrast to the portal provider this is a complete, native Geoclue
API implementation on a state machine (for handling corner cases, etc.)
for use in a standalone Firefox.
