Have you looked at just reusing JAR for this (given that you support
it in some form already)? I wonder how well it works. Off the top of
my head I see at least two issues:
JARs are just ZIPs with Java metadata. We don't need metadata, so plain
ZIPs are enough.
I'm looking at JARs because Gecko supports them. We certainly don't want
the Java metadata, but we might need some metadata (e.g. media type
mappings).
This depends on a document, so it wouldn't work in workers unless we add
a second API to register them in script.
This isn't initially for Workers, but as indicated previously in this
thread a method might be useful anyway.
