After sending this, it occurs to me that at the worst, I could have a
separate document to marshal access to a cross domain web worker.
It's an extra hoop to jump through, but at least it would work.

Hello,
I was taking a look at the Web Workers Draft ( http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-workers/current-work/
), and I couldn't find any mention of cross domain workers. I've
read a bit about relaxing domain restrictions on documents, but
worker's don't seem to have a document object. I also see the
details about location, but I haven't found any information about
relaxing the origin. Is there any plan to allow cross-domain
workers? I'm currently using them in Gears to enable a shared
storage solution, and would like to be able to migrate one day to
official standards.
Thanks,
