webpack/lib/webworker/ImportScriptsChunkLoadingPlugin.js

It appears that webpack unnecessarily makes loading additional chunks in worker entrypoints asynchronous, given that the method used to load additional chunks is in fact synchronous.
I ran into this trying to create a custom worker for monaco. It uses importScripts to load a file from a given URL, and expects something to be synchronously defined after importScripts has returned (code). This fails if the URL is a webpack bundle generated using importScripts, but it works if I change asyncChunkLoading to false in the above code.
