My take on the comments is that most commentors prefer the spec to be changed as PLH suggested in comment #5:

Hixie - are you willing to change the spec accordingly?

If anyone has additional comments, please add them to the bug before the end of this week.

I would like to get consensus on this bug soon and would prefer we do so via e-mail and not have to start some type of poll/survey.

-Thanks, AB

http://dev.w3.org/html5/webstorage/#dom-storage-getitem says that "The
getItem(key) method must return a structured clone of the current value
associated with the given key." but all browsers I've tested return a string
representation of the value instead.
