FWIW, I discussed this with Hyatt and Hyatt agrees that blocking on any script
that might refer to layout dimensions that might depend on script is the right
solution for correctness (that's what the spec does).

I agree that this leads to a situation where document.write() can return early
based on network latency.

The decision here seems to be between making the input stream track where data
comes from, and making how much document.write() has parsed before it returns
depend on network latency.

Further input (especially from browser vendors) is definitely welcome.
