Dear platformers,

 As you may be aware, we have been busy for the past few months/years
adding platform APIs to simplify everybody's task of writing
asynchronous or, even better, off-main thread code [1].

Do you have wishes for Q4 or beyond? [De]compressing files on chrome
workers? Accessing sqlite from chrome workers? More tooling for Promise?
New preference APIs? Anything else?

Please drop a line, either here or on the blog:

Cheers,
 David

P.S.: If you want to discuss this IRL, I'll be in Brussels for the Summit.

[1] From the top of my head, we have added and gradually improved
Promise.jsm, Task.jsm, OS.File, Sqlite.jsm, mozIStorageAsyncConnection,
AsyncShutdown.jsm, nsIBackgroundFileSaver, add_task for xpcshell and
mochitest-browser, async transactions for places, the chrome worker
module loader, ...
