After the last F2F in Paris, I spoke to Ian Hickson about the
Storage APIs in HTML5, and my understanding is now that his intent
is to split this part of the spec into a separate document. This
makes it much easier for us to reference an external spec, given
that the scope of such a specification is much smaller.
One comment I received is:
[[
At the moment, there is no way to separate the localStorage for pages
that are stored in the same domain and file system is considered one
domain.
The result is that widgets could see each other's preferences.

What are your thoughts on how to change the definition of localStorage?

I have updated the spec, currently reflected in http://dev.w3.org/
2006/waf/widgets-api/Overview.src.html to be in line with the
current state of this future specification.
Note that the Storage API as involved here obsoletes the need for
the set/getPreference methods, and they are now commented out to
reflect this.
If the change is acceptable, it should close ACTION-233 and ACTION-313
