So far, nobody said that the idea was either stupid or impossible/impractical,
so I went ahead and filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=961689

I don't understand the last sentence. Is "memory corruption" referring to the
global state you mentioned before?
Yes.
When you wrote "parallel-safe" above, was that implicitly thread-parallelism?
Yes.

From what I understand, it's already possible to create process-separated

It's pretty far away in Gecko as it stands, because we have all sorts of
global state (class statics, say!) that
bset that can work in
parallel from its parent.
I believe parallel sandboxed iframes would be a good thing also because it
would encourage web developers to use them also for their security
characteristics. It would also save the work of creating new WebWorker-specific
APIs.
Thoughts?
