I'm ok with removing this feature for the reasons you described. I concur with
others who think we should update the spec. I am also skeptical of state
sharing features that work via newer, less tested API surface instead of

Yeah, normally I would have waited longer, but the patch fixed a crash in
WebKit2 that was making the bots red. There was a discussion in another
bug (sorry, don't have the link handy) where folks graciously held off
fixing the crash, and I didn't want them to wait any longer than necessary.
I actually do know of at least one WebKit-only application under
development at Google that may be using this feature (I recently

feature.
Please make sure the spec changes as Geoff pointed out.
