Though it would be very nice to have defined semantics wrt the

I am not sure if this helps much - you can create a transaction
from onbeforeunload, but you are likely to run the actual statement
after the frame closes.
Not if your beforeonunload handler prevents the frame from closing,
and you continue to prevent it from closing until your data is saved!
As far as the unload handler question, what are the semantics for
XHR? Seems the application of "saving some application state via I/
O" is the same concept here, so the same rules should apply.
That's a good question :)
That I've never seen a good answer to! =D
