Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Should EventSource and WebSocket be exposed in service workers? (#947)

I was wondering, is there any legit use case for having WebSockets in service workers? Considering the service worker isn't something long-running, and WebSockets are best utilized when the connection built up with the (relatively expensive) handshake lasts longer I couldn't come up with a good usecase.

(fwiw being able to host "sub-workers" and run socket connections in there does seem to solve this and sounds like a better usecase for me)
