In the following stripped-down code example, shouldn't the 
core-localstorage element load the value of the global js variable 
`itemsApiURL' into {{value}}, so that it is passed into 
my-datasource-element when that custom element is prepared?  Or is the 
purpose of core-localstorage limited to writing values to localstorage? 
 Currently, as is, {{value}} is undefined on my-datasource-element's 
ready() event, despite it existing as a global variable (ideally set in an 
external js config file, not included in head as shown here).  I'm 
definitely not doing something right...perhaps my lack of comfort with js, 
or some sort of scoping/sequence of events issue.  

Maybe there is an entirely better way to configure polymer app-wide 
variables/constants, so that values can be easily used my all of the 
applications elements, or at least passed around as element attributes via 
2 way databinding?  That is really the more important question here I 
think...but either way I'm still confused as to how core-localstorage is 
meant to operate.

<html>
<head>
     <script>
          this.itemsApiURL = "http://server:port/api/items";;
     </script>

     <link rel="import" href="./components/platform/platform.js">
     <link rel="import" href=
"./components/core-localstorage/core-localstorage.html">
</head>

<body fullbleed unresolved>

     <template is="auto-binding">
          <core-localstorage name="itemsApiURL" value="{{value}}"
></core-localstorage>

          <my-datasource-element url="{{value}}" items="{{items}}"
><my-datasource-element>
     </template>

</body>
</html>
