sendMessageToFrontend is supposed to work asynchronously, not re-entering any of the JavaScript or rendering code. So far it is achieved by the dispatcher's setTimeout on the front-end side.
We should migrate to native timers instead. Note that this would also require testing harness to be reimplemented.
