I agree with Alexey putting a secure rng on window object is not helpful for
workers.

That said i feel dubious as to the value of this API -- if it doesn't exist
people are going to have to use Math.random anyway, and having a predictable
random() is something i consider a bug anyway.

Happily as of r39510 Math.random() is cryptographically secure on mac and
windows.
