Re: [w3c/gamepad] Make gamepads accessible by web worker (#37)

Handling Gamepads from workers would be like handling mouse/keyboard/touch/pointer events from workers, which is (of course) not done.

> Gamepad access from workers is essential for haptic support. Haptic features that apply forces or limit motion require a high frequency feedback loop of reading controller inputs and updating force values. Outside of the trivial case of vibration, these features will not work well outside of workers.

This is presented as a matter of fact without any supporting evidence.
