I suspect that some people will try webworkers, so we should make sure 
the semantics of having a PC in a webworker are well-defined. I'm not 
knowledgeable enough about webworkers to know whether we need to do 
anything special to accomodate them.

Reload with server-stored state should work in browsers without 
webworkers, too.
