Are you saying that every operating system that runs web browsers
guarantees to do time-slicing of threads if it can't do any better?
That is, a forever loop is guaranteed to be paused from time to time
without that being requested by the thread code.

If not, Jonas complains and wants the HTML standard to forbid it, one
way or another.
