We support both subscribing to sites (bookmarks) and downloading them in the background. The main issue with regards to latency is inline images. The web-pushing branch deals with these without having to create a new browser profile etc, which has caused chaos (really bad things, permanently corrupting the user's browser config) when we've done it in the past. However that *does* degrade gracefully. What is at stake here is whether the rest of the user interface should *require* Javascript.
