Description

If we can refactor Worker, Dispatcher, and Actor into a general purpose background processing utility (or find such an existing utility), GL JS's architecture will simplify nicely, especially around custom sources. We will remove a lot of unnecessary coupling and pave the way for new background processing features like #1042.
