I'm really excited about service worker, but it's going to be some time
until its available broadly.
It's one of the missing pieces for the web browsers to be great. Real

Too bad ServiceWorker isn't really supported on mobile
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorker_API#Browser_compatibility>

Chrome Mobile 40). We could always provide our own polyfill in the native
