The point still being, with this change you can have only one tab doing server communication at "full throttle", which may kill whatever gameplay elements make the players open this game in multiple tabs.

I'm not sure on the Chrome implementation, but I think all of the visible tabs would be foreground, not background. So the issue would be refreshing when changing tabs. (And also communicating between visible tabs).
