Hi, I have a concern about the web storage event spec
(http://dev.w3.org/html5/webstorage/).
The spec states:
"When the setItem(), removeItem(), and clear() methods are called on a
Storage object x that is associated with a local storage area, if the
methods did something, then in every HTMLDocument object whose Window
object's localStorage attribute's Storage object is associated with the
same storage area, other than x, a storage event must be fired..."
My concern lies with the "other than x" part. Unless I'm missing
something, these events would be even more useful if they also fired in
the HTMLDocument that initially made the storage call.
The page which is changing storage object knows already that the storage
object is being changed. Why would it need explicit
notification (event) about that?

Thanks for your time.
