Description
From a usability perspective, a blocking API is very attractive. However, the impact on interactivity would be unacceptable on the main thread.
An interesting possibility is to provide a blocking API only in workers.
Maybe something like
[Exposed=Worker] static Uint8Array blockingCompress(DOMString format, BufferSource input);
See also #8 for an equivalent non-blocking method and #37 for motivation.
