WorkerCrypto interface concerns from Microsoft

Group,

After yesterday's call, I had an opportunity to get clarification from Ryan on the work related to the WorkerCrypto interface [1].  From my new understanding, the intent is to surface the SubtleCrypto interface and its async behavior to a Worker so that they can perform cryptographic operations as first-class citizens.  This approach won't allow for any mutation of DOM objects.

This new understanding removed my initial concern about the section. This seems very reasonable and I don't see a need to put this section at Risk.  However, I would like to see this clarification be part of the spec.
