           Summary: As documented in the "Creating workers"  section, a
                    worker *must* be an external script. This prevents
                    developing or deploying code that uses Web Workers as
                    a single page app, which is often quite handy. Could
                    this restriction be lifted?

external script. This prevents developing or deploying code that uses Web
Workers as a single page app, which is often quite handy. Could this
