My take on the comments is that most commentors prefer the spec to be
changed as PLH suggested in comment #5:
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12111#c5
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

Summary: spec for Storage object getItem(key) method does
not
match implementation behavior
Product: WebAppsWG
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Web Storage (editor: Ian Hickson)

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.
