Vats as currently specified have independent event loops and allow

A window and its same-origin subframe have two separate WindowProxys
but can't really be separate Vats given the above, yes?
Yup, but doesn't help inspire fewer/pithier metaphors, alas. "Vat" from
Mark's E work is meaningful to those who know that work, and that's
valuable. But can we do better?
Again this sub-thread, is mostly about finding the right terms of art.
If we can unify across specs (if not within), that's gravy.
