Re: [whatwg/xhr] Why do we need to remove synchronous XHR? (Issue #336)

Unproductive because people disagree that removing sync XHR is a good idea? I read through the discussion and didn't see any compelling solutions proposed for people using sync XHR.  What if having the web page hang is exactly what I want to happen while my request is in flight? How do I now artificially do that while the request is in flight (I know I've seen plenty of web pages attempting this with a modal spinner), and why not use the simpler approach that is already implemented and available, namely sync XHR?
