Specification

Summary

This feature captures the JS call stack when a web page becomes unresponsive 
due to JavaScript code running an infinite loop or other very long computation. 
This helps developers to identify the cause of the unresponsiveness and fix it 
more easily. The JS call stack is included in the crash reporting API when the 
reason is unresponsive.

Motivation

When a web page becomes unresponsive, it's often because of JavaScript code 
which is busy running an infinite loop or other very long computation. When a 
developer receives a report from the crash reporting API, and the reason is 
unresponsive, it would be very helpful to include the JS call stack from when 
the page was deemed unresponsive. This would let the website developer more 
easily find the find and fix the problem. What happens instead? The page 
reports that it was terminated due to being unresponsive, but the developer of 
the page has no further information about how to fix the problem.
