--- Comment #8 from David Fahlander <david.fahlander at gmail.com> ---
Communicating between service worker and DOM windows can be essential for sync use cases in PWAs. Safari is the only modern browser not supporting this.

There is a polyfill for this with its limitations: It doesn't support workers and it doesn't support structured cloning - https://www.npmjs.com/package/broadcastchannel-polyfill.

Polyfilling it for workers is harder to do.

It would be awesome if BroadcastChannel could soon become present in all modern browsers and if only Safari implements it we would be there.
