Agreed. We are unsure if that goes into our spec or into the
WebStorage spec.
I suspect there is a piece of it that ought to go into the Widget spec.
The current approach simply means that there is no shared,
persistent
storage in the widget model; that's probably isn't what people
desire.
"the current approach" meaning what is currently specified in the A&E
spec, right?
It means what's currently in the web storage spec, and what's in every
way to construct an origin for a widget that I've seen -- whether it's
Arve's approach with the widget:// scheme (and some random string in
it, per instance), or my proposal of simply going for a random string.
