Stefan identified a serious multi-thread locking bug in mhttpd that affects the operation of the sequencer (a race condition between db_set_record() and

"Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user's experience. For more help, check http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/."

Promises.
