I think it's doable to implement this in WebCore. We'd basically need to simulate the network layer's backlog when several XHRs have been sent from WebCore. I think we'd do this by placing a cap on the number of XHRs sent to the network layer from WebCore and queuing those that exceed the cap based on the description in the proposed spec. I can hack this up in a separate bug.

Are there any further comments on this bug?
