Why do we need to remove synchronous XHR? #336

The assumption is that sync I/O on the main thread is never a good idea. I'm folding this into #20.

I'm sorry, but I don't think there has been new information on this subject in the past decade.

I rather not unlock #20 as the conversation there was rather unproductive.
