> We should not assume there is always going to be 1:1 correspondence between workers and OS threads. At least this is going to be port-specific. For example, Chromium can run workers in separate process and might need to manage threads/resources/shutdown sequence in a specific way there.

That's a good point, but even if workers are implemented as processes, don't you want those to terminate in a "controlled" way?

How does chromium enforce the termination of shared workers if for example I close the last window?
