Hello,
	I was taking a look at the Web Workers Draft ( http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-workers/current-work/ 
  ), and I couldn't find any mention of cross domain workers.  I've  
read a bit about relaxing domain restrictions on documents, but  
worker's don't seem to have a document object.  I also see the details  
about location, but I haven't found any information about relaxing the  
origin.  Is there any plan to allow cross-domain workers?  I'm  
currently using them in Gears to enable a shared storage solution, and  
would like to be able to migrate one day to official standards.

Thanks,
