I just received this message in the console: 

"Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user’s experience. For more help http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/"

So every single use case is detrimental to the end users experience? They don't know what the use case is. If you are having problems with freezing the UI that's the developers misapplication not a fault of the API. Applications need to be able to choose between sync and async.
