gollark: Oh, and unify ServiceWorker and WebWorker and SharedWorker and whatever into some sort of nicer "background task" API.
gollark: API coherency: drop stuff like XMLHttpRequest which is obsoleted by cleaner things like `fetch`, actually have a module system and don't just randomly scatter objects and functions in the global scope, don't have a weird mix of callbacks, events and promises everywhere.
gollark: Alternatively, cross-origin stuff is allowed but runs with separate cookies, caches, etc. to first-party requests, and comes with a "requested from this origin" header.
gollark: Cross-origin fixes: *no* use of crossdomain resources unless the other thing opts in. This breaks image hotlinking and such, which is annoying, but fixes CSRF entirely.
gollark: That doesn't really help with the security issues though.
