Re: [whatwg/xhr] Abandon hope of removing sync XHR from the web platform? (#20)

@I-Maps, it seems like most of the push for this is coming from Google & Mozilla due to the impact that abuse of sync XHR has on requestAnimationFrame(), which probably has substantial dollars-and-cents consequences for their businesses.  Since they can't fix sloppy coding on the 3rd-party pages that host the ads, killing the pain-point in the API is probably their best bet.

I suspect most of the web application developers complaining here are largely being talked-past because we at least have control over our own code, and most of us aren't supporting browser development in any meaningful way, so why should they care?
