BroadcastChannel is part of HTML5 and would be nice to have it enabled by default.

How stable is the worker part of this?

Comment 2

[Andrea Marchesini [:baku]]

Worker and main-thread share the same logic. And both are based on PBackground. We don't have complex states and/or runnables as WebSocket impl does.

I think to know how stable it is we should expose it to the biggest number of uses we can and have feedback.
