This API seems much less general than offscreen canvas, so it's subject to the same criticism and you can't even make the argument that it also serves other use cases. The criticism for the OffscreenCanvas was 1. it made the core use case of image resizing rather complicated and 2. depending on the browser's implementation, there may be faster ways to do the image resizing than doing it on a worker. The net suggestion that "This supports the idea of specialized API..." -- http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2010-March/025590.html This is exactly what we are doing (and it addresses those criticisms).
