Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Safety versus simplicity in specification tests (#1087)

Thanks for your input, @jungkees and @aliams. To be clear: I am not suggesting
any modification to the specification. This may be a little confusing given
that I'm raising the discussion here, but my goal is to get feedback on a
testing strategy using the API as it is currently defined. (Apologies if this
was already apparent.)

So far, it's sounding like, "yes, worker termination **is** a practical
concern, so we do need to guard against it," but "no, we shouldn't do it with a
`postMessage`-based "keep alive" protocol." Maybe those initial experiments
with IndexedDB will come in handy, after all!

Interested to hear if others feel the same way.
