I have done this on my feature branch since it made some things easier. I'll post the patch tomorrow after I rebase it to ToT.

Currently stuck on what to do about WorkerThreadableWebSocketChannel::Peer. The lifetime management is pretty hacky and relied on PassOwnPtr destructors, and blindly converting to unique_ptr won't work because the copy constructor is being called somehow.

I'd appreciate any help. The relevant error:

unassigning, I think many of these have been fixed already in the meantime by :zdobersek

Lets not keep this bug open because, as Brian said, many of these are done already. We will come back to any of these that remain as we hit the final stretch of getting rid of OwnPtr.
