This proposal needs considerably more substance.  For instance, the
implementation of something like this in a ServiceWorker in particular
is not suited to the lifecycle model of service workers.

I get the reasons that this is attractive: it's superfiially very
attractive.  But I think that we need to carefully consider how we
move something of this complexity.
