I wouldn't ding a browser for not having implemented a W3C WD yet. If it's a CR, then it's a different story.

TIL that service workers are still a working draft

They're REC track w/ multiple interoperable implementations. Core is stable. "Working draft" misleading.

Actually, this is worth digging into because it's such a persistent myth. The W3C process is *hugely* conservative.

Many features that make it into the WHATWG "living standard" wouldn't even be counted as WDs in the W3C process.

In the past few years we've moved the design phase of new feature development into incubation groups, like the WICG: https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/

This has meant that the official W3C process gets invoked _later_, at a point where features are more mature.

E.g., we published first WD for Service Workers *after* we shipped them in Chrome & Mozilla was implementing. This is working-as-intended.

There is subtlety here. Not all WDs are at that level of maturity. Not all WGs operate this way (yet). Not all features use W3C process.

But the TL;DR is that saying "it's just a Working Draft" is so useless as a judge of feature maturity as to be "not even wrong".

The true test for website use is whether the feature works interoperably in browsers under real world patterns.
