<DIV>Btw, I thought I'd just point out that the proposal mentions this case:
"From the proposal text: "<SPAN class=Apple-style-span
style="FONT-SIZE: 13px; FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse">All
pages connected to the same Global Script should run on the same thread, in
the same process. Since this is not always technically possible, it
should be legal (and not break the applications) for there to be duplicate
global script contexts within a UA<SPAN class=Apple-style-span
style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: arial; BORDER-COLLAPSE: separate">".
<FONT face="Times New Roman">I'm glad this came up, however, since now it's
more clear why such language is necessary.<SPAN class=229561908-19082009><FONT

misread that part. I interpreted the second half of it (after
"technically possible") as other threading models were possible. Now, as I
understand it, two pages sharing a GlobalScript MUST share a single
thread, or otherwise MUST use a different/duplicate
GlobalScript instance.</FONT> </SPAN></SPAN></SPAN><SPAN
