Should JS be defining an event loop abstraction that WebCore then uses? That would be weird, because the required behavior of the even loop in web content is chock full of issues that are not at all related to JavaScript. JSC doesn't even know enough to run microtasks at all the right times (from reading the spec it seems that way, at least) for the Web case. Or are you saying it would have a fallback runloop for non-Web contents?
