Apple engineers from the WebKit team have been heavily involved in 
ServiceWorkers spec discussions over the past few years. Many of our concerns 
with the spec have been addressed, especially for Fetch service workers which 
generally don't run beyond the scope of pages that use them. While we have not 
done any implementation work, the "under consideration" in this case is meant 
literally. We actually are considering it.

More info about who's asking for it and what their use cases are would be 
useful, if you're free to share.
