+# Proposal: browser.dom.execute()
+
+**Summary**
+
+This API allows an isolated world (such as a content script world or user
+script world) to synchronously execute code in the main world of the document
+its injected in.

+
+## Motivation
+
+### Objective
+
+This allows isolated worlds to synchronously inject in the main world.  This is
+both beneficial by itself and also a prerequisite for our current plan to
+implement inter-world communication (the latter of which will be a separate
+proposal).
+
+#### Use Cases
+
+##### Executing script in the main world
+
+Today, extensions can execute script in the main world by:
+* Leveraging scripting.executeScript() or registering content scripts or user
+  scripts, or
+* Appending a new script tag to the document
+
+The former is heavily asynchronous or requires knowledge of whether to inject
+beforehand (to register a script).  The latter is very visible to the site and
+has more potential side effects.  While there's no way to fully "hide" a script
+from a site, it is desirable to avoid adding DOM elements (which could
+interfere with sites with certain properties).
+
+### Known Consumers
+
+User script managers have expressed an interest in this API, but this is also
+useful to any extension that wishes to execute script in the main world while
+leveraging information from the isolated world.
+
+## Specification
+
+### Schema
+
+```
+declare namespace dom {
+  interface ScriptInjection {
+    func: () => any;
+    args: any[];
+  };
+
+  export function execute(
+      injection: ScriptInjection
+  ): any
+}
+```
+
+### Behavior
+
+#### Function execution
+
+The function is executed _synchronously_ in the main world.  The return value
+is the serialized return value from the function execution.
+
+#### Cross-world contamination
+
+To prevent any "piercing" of the different worlds, all pieces are serialized in
+their original world, then a copy is deserialized in the target world.
+Otherwise, there would be a risk of sharing variables between worlds (even when
+non-obvious, such as by accessing the prototype of an item).
+
+##### Argument serialization
+
+Arguments are serialized and deserialized using the Structured Cloning
+algorithm.  This allows for more flexibility than simply JSON conversion.  In
+the future, some arguments may have custom serialization.
+
+##### Function serialization
+
+The injected function is serialized to and parsed from a string.  Bound
+parameters are not supported.  Arguments must be curried in through the `args`
+key.
+
+##### Return value serialization
+
+Like arguments, the return value of the execution is serialized and
+deserialized using the Structured Cloning algorithm.
+
+##### Injected script privileges
+
+The injected script has the same privileges has other script in the main world.
+This goes for API access, Content Security Policy, origin access, and more.
+
+##### CSP Application
+
+The injected script is not considered inline and does not have a corresponding
+source; as such, CSP restrictions on script-src (and similar) do not apply.
+However, since the script executes in the main world, other CSP restrictions
+(including connect-src and which sources may be added to the document, among
+many others) *may* apply to the injected script.
+
+### New Permissions
+
+There are no new permissions for this capability.  This does not allow any new
+data access, since it is only accessible once the extension has already
+injected a script into the document.  Extensions can also already interact with
+the main world of the document through either appending script tags or directly
+injecting with registered content or user scripts, or the
+scripting.executeScript() method.
+
+### Manifest File Changes
+
+There are no necessary manifest changes.
+
+## Security and Privacy
+
+### Exposed Sensitive Data
+
+This does not result in any new data being exposed.
+
+### Abuse Mitigations
+
+This doesn't enable any new data access.  To prevent any risk of cross-world
+interaction, all data that passes between worlds is serialized in the original
+world, then deserialized (creating a new copy) in the target world.  The
+executed script has no additional capabilities or APIs; it has the same
+privilege as the document's own main world code.
+
+### Additional Security Considerations
+
+N/A.
+
+## Alternatives
+
+### Existing Workarounds
+
+Extension developers can inject in the main world through registered content or
+user scripts, along with the scripting.executeScript() API.  They can also
+inject code in the main world by adding a script tag to the DOM.  However, the
+API-powered options are asynchronous, and a script tag is inherently visible to
+other scripts running in the main world.
+
+### Open Web API
+
+The open web is unaware of the concept of multiple Javascript worlds, so this
+wouldn't belong as an open web API.
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+N/A.
+
+## Future Work
+
+### Inter-world communication
+
+This API is a necessary first step before introducing inter-world communication
+channels.  We plan to do that alongside the implementation for this API.
+
+### Specifying a target world
+
+For now, this API is intended to let scripts running in content or user script
+worlds inject in the main world.  In the future, we will expand this to allow a
+script to inject in additional other worlds, such as a content script injecting
+in a user script world.
