Hi,
In Opera Extensions we use something that resembles shared workers. One
modification is that the 'connect' event's source port is exposed in
.source instead of in .ports[0], to make it closer to the API for
cross-document messaging. Maybe we should make this change to Shared
Workers as well.
I think shared workers hasn't seen wide adoption yet, so maybe changes
like this are still possible.
What do people think?
currently:
onconnect = function(e) { e.ports[0].postMessage('pong') }
proposed change:
onconnect = function(e) { e.source.postMessage('pong') }
