Details

We need to be able to run XHR on worker threads rather than proxying all our calls to the main thread (as we do currently). To accomplish this we'll need to split the cycle collected components of XHR into some separate base class and provide some alternate implementation for workers. We will also need to do something about the event listeners and such.
What is the plan for necko handling? It does still expect main thread, right?
Yes, all necko and nsIURI handling will have to happen on the main thread only.

Likely this means that we'll have to read out the data from necko in OnDataAvailable and send an event to the worker thread that owns the data buffer.
