I've been trying to understand the difference between SharedWorker and  
DedicatedWorker interfaces. Besides the ability to pick an existing  
worker by name, are there any other semantic differences? I may be  
missing something, but it looks like a single Worker interface with an  
optional name parameter to constructor would work just as well.

The WHATWG draft calls this postMessage() - is this just a different  
name, or an implied substantial difference in behavior?
