Details

Right now gaia apps receive different system messages to perform actions (alarms, push notifications, sms received, etc). We have to investigate how to deliver this with multi document web apps.
Agreed. Will all documents (outer-windows & iframes) receive the event? One thing that's beginning to look troublesome is not being able to update UI 'instantly'. If the outer-document needs to tell an nested iframe to respond and main-thread is busy, this task is pushed to the end of the queue, and can take a long time to run. As a result we lose some responsiveness. This is perhaps due to outer-document and nested iframes sharing the same thread. But TBH I don't know must about this area. IIRC there was some talk in Paris of iframes getting their own thread/process, perhaps related to e10s.
