For me "staging area" is just a different name for "any directory on your 
harddisk", which is simple.

For me private site is a different name for "dat store, without the 
possibility to see your stuff as a real file" ... 

If I would want to hide my content somewhere on the harddisk, I could use 
the browser internal storage mechanisms. Browser storage can be synced 
across devices. The only problem is, we don't trust it, because the stuff 
is binary encoded and can't be easily accessed with a file explorer and 
text editors. ... (and you can't trust it by design, because of automatic 
data removal mechanisms.)

At the moment I'm more interested in the possibility to use "my browser of 
choice" with DAT. DAT-Desktop can be compiled 
<https://github.com/datproject/dat-desktop/issues/443> on windows since 
early December. The desktop program and the CLI allow you to transparently 
share folders. Similar to dropbox. 

I may have a closer look at the beaker API again, after 0.8 is out. ...
