Do you have use cases besides these two?
In bug 845190 [1] we're seeing an issue which might be caused by an
unexpected shutdown sequence. What seems to be happening is that a DOM
worker thread is created very late during the test; once ShutdownXPCOM()
is invoked the worker runtime service is supposed to tear down all
remaining workers but in order to do so it has to wait for pending ones
to finish loading and then stop. Unfortunately the said worker starts
loading when many other subsystems have already been shut down (either
by receiving a shutdown-xpcom or shutdown-xpcom-threads event) and trips
over errors/assertions because of that.
Is this not the OS.File issue that Vladan mentioned?
My point is that there doesn't seem to be enough use cases to warrant a
new infrastructure to handle shutdown dependencies.
