If there's someone who understands the model of Web Workers and is 
interested in the subject, can that person please volunteer to provide 
some text (with pointers) on:

- What it means to use a PeerConnection from a WebWorker (or a 
SharedWorker?)
- What the security implications are
- What the concurrency implications are
- What needs to be changed in our current spec to allow it?

I know that multithread programming has quite a few interesting 
"gotchas" in other languages / runtime environments; I assume that the 
Javascript WebWorker environment is no different in that regard (but the 
"gotchas" are, I'm sure, different).

It seems less than efficient to have people singing the praises of 
WebWorkers piecemeal, and having no context to place this idea against.
