           Summary: Need to refactor MessagePort to support multi-process
                    implementations
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore JavaScript
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: atwilson at google.com
                CC: ap at webkit.org


The current implementation of MessagePort has a direct reference between a port
and its entangled pair. This works when both ports are running in the same
process, but won't work when the entangled port lives in a separate process.

We need to refactor the MessagePort code to expose a RemotePort interface -
this allows multi-process implementations to use a proxy object as the
entangled pair.
