Description Simon Kaegi CLA 2012-04-04 23:01:16 EDT
We should support the writing of Web Workers based plugins as well as IFrames as sometimes you want a thread to do work without impacting the UI.
Comment 1 Simon Kaegi CLA 2012-04-04 23:04:00 EDT
Pushed -- see plugin registry tests for an example.
