Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:5 mcs]:
 > We did disallow use of Broadcast Channels from SharedWorkers when
 isolation is enabled because, as with blob URLs (#15502), there is no good
 way to get at the document or channel.

 This is okay and won't hurt especially as we disable SharedWorkers (we
 have #15564 for the URL bar domain isolation). I am wondering though how
 they determine the origin and whether we have to update our
 ThirdPartyUtils for this then...

 Might need another pair of eyes due to being a C++ patch but I am happy
 with it, thanks!
