Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Spec how extendable events are given time to execute (#1566)

My use case: I have a personal Chrome extensions that, when clicked, queries DynamoDB for a list of URLs and then opens each URL in a new tab in turn (up to some limit of total open tabs).  Into each tab is injected a content script that scans the page and most likely closes the tab.  Tabs that are left open I visually inspect when I get around to it.

This works great in Chrome Manifest Version 2, where I can make the extension's background script persistent and so run exactly as long as I need it to (until it has handled each URL).  Sometimes this is less than 5 minutes, great.  Otherwise, it's pretty annoying.
