Don't perform arbitrary-length transactions over the Javascript bridge.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We do some pretty heavy transactions across our "bridge" between Java and the WebView (i.e. when loading page sections). We may want to think about switching to filesystem-based section loading: after fetching a section from the network, write it to a file, and then trigger the WebView to load the section from the file.
