Details

This will be super useful for BrowsingContext (to perform the basic syncing between processes) and for Session History.

In effect it will have the following properties:
 1. Only a single process is allowed to mutate at a time.
 2. Parent process mediates all communications & can validate them
 3. Managed by a set of toplevel actors, and may only be sent over them.
 4. Sendable over IPC and subclassable.

(turns out this wasn't the most polished idea I've ever had - wontfix)
