1583923 - (fission-replicated-fields) [Meta] Identify and collect all state that needs to move from docshells, windows, and documents into their corresponding synchronized contexts

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, task, P2)

Description

[Kannan Vijayan [:djvj]]

Apologies for the long title.

This bug tracks all the pieces of data (basically fields) that fit the following criteria:

1. The data resides in the DocShell, Window, Document, or other structures which are not replicated across processes.

2. The data may be accessed by code that is executing in a different process context.

3. The information in the data is not consequential to security considerations, and can be replicated across all processes.

These pieces of data are candidates to either be moved outright, or at least synchronized with the process-replicated structures like BrowsingContext, and WindowContext (does not exist yet - proposed by Nika).

removing fission milestone since this is a meta bug

Assigning to Fission Future because only one dependency (Bug 1585077) is left and that's tracking Fission Future.
