Not really. We do use the terms front and back, but they usually refer
to something a bit orthognal to this child/main process distinction...
closer to network stack vs closer to browserui is generally what these
terms refer to.
Anyway... how these terms are used in chromium shouldn't influence our
use of these terms in webcore much... in webcore-land we (me at least)
were thinking 'front' == closer to script and html content, 'back' ==
farther away from that.
