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

I just spent a couple of days debugging a problem in a major piece of enterprise software caused by use of sync XHR. Let me assure you, it does cause problems for real-world applications. Expensive problems. Chrome has a long history of hacks aimed at mitigating the problems. Even if you think you know what you're doing, you're actually relying on hacks that make it mostly work mostly well enough most of the time.
