We lack some clear terminology and principles around globals and origins which is why they continue to be a mess. As you know I've filed various bugs on both HTML and IDL to get this cleared up, but not much progress to date. Given how the Notifications API is not really widely deployed yet, I'm sure we can change this. What would you suggest it says? -- https://annevankesteren.nl/
