Re: [whatwg/dom] Proposal: DOM APIs in web workers? (Issue #1217)

The way browser engines such as Blink, Gecko, & WebKit are written right now, the vast majority of DOM code assumes that it's running in the main thread. Making it possible to run that code in a worker is a massive undertaking. Is it theoretically possible? Yes, but it's by no means simple or easy. It could easy be a multi-year/multi-engineer effort.
