Comment (by pulkomandy):
Etherpad is using platformLoadResourceSynchronously(), which is not
implemented in our WebKit http backend.
The difficulty is that currently our code uses an asynchronous listener,
that communicates with the main thread by sending BMessages. However,
platformLoadResourceSynchronously expects the request to run (and the
notifications to be called) while blocking the main thread.
To achieve this, either we add some way to run the protocol loop in an
existing thread in blocking mode, or need some special way of
communicating between the request thread and the main thread that does not
involve BMessage (it can be done with a custom asynchronous listener, for
example).
