Hmm...  Though I suppose it's possible that the spec could define on 
microtask per requestAnimationFrame callback while we want to have the 
slow-script timer consider all the callbacks for a single refresh driver 
tick together...

I guess the other problem is to just reset the slow script state when we 
spin the event loop.  That should help with the real problem we're 
trying to solve, which is being away from the event loop for too long, 
right?
