I'm not disagreeing with you. Yes, the script needs to see a coherent state as it executes BUT the renderer only needs a logically consistent snapshot, correct? So the script can work on the most current version of the DOM, while the renderer does its thing to produce a bitmap from the snapshot? Again, I may be spouting nonsense due to my ignorance of the details of the Webkit/Chromium architecture. I don't really know how the pieces fit together yet. I apologize for that. I'll spend a couple of days to better understand the architecture.
