I don't think anyone is working on that. I have not seen any patch.

It is quite impossible to say in advance with WebKit. Hundreds of people 
work on various things, it is impossible to predict what will be done 
next. There is no central authority in WebKit, it is a distributed project.

We are looking into a way to make it easier to find what is being 
developed. For features where no contributor made any patch, it is 
impossible to know if anyone will volunteer to implement it.

If you want to start working on Service Workers in WebKit, go for it. I 
don't think that will conflicts with any other ongoing project.
