Re: [suborigins] Accessing workers from suborigins

Hi!

Oh, sorry. The header at the top of the draft said that feedback
should go to this list and where the issue tracker is.  Also on GitHub
it is written "Pull requests happily reviewed." All this really makes
it feel like we can already discuss it and comment on it. Maybe a
message that it is not yet open for feedback could be added to GitHub
and the draft to avoid confusion?
