Description Alexey Proskuryakov 2013-07-25 22:18:04 PDT
SuspendableTimer is fairly difficult to understand, or to use safely. It does not enforce the invariant that fired() cannot be called when the timer is suspended. And a debug-only m_suspended member variable that's used for assertions doesn't accurately track whether ActiveDOMObject is suspended.

Most ActiveDOMObjects are pretty sloppy about this, but timers are easiest to misuse, especially through DocumentEventQueue.
