+1 for `import.fork()`, especially for deep integration with module syntax.
Anyway I think we still need to create Independent message channel which
can be transferable, for use cases like returning sequence of messages,
central worker manager, etc.
I agree with your approach to avoid new global variable as much as
possible. To respect this, how about `Channel#createChannel` method?
```
const [chan, remoteChan] = worker.createChannel()
worker.send('newchan', remoteChan [remoteChan])
```
