At the all-hands :baku proposed making nsIGlobalObject the public interface, with the intent to move even worker-specific things to this interface like Terminate().  That seems like an excellent plan to me.

edit, much later: nsIGlobalObject is not something we can safely use on the parent thread (or other threads), so although nsIGlobalObject is an appropriate interface for logic *on the worker thread*, it's definitely the case that there are other use-cases where this is not appropriate.  Like the `Worker` binding held by the parent could not/must not use nsIGlobalObject.  There is also the RuntimeService set of use-cases that ideally would be a separate interface because of our plans for the new IPDL protocols for things like sending debugger control messages via IPC rather than via direct runnables.
