Re: [w3c/ServiceWorker] Safety versus simplicity in specification tests (#1087)

concern, so we do need to guard against it," but "no, we shouldn't do it with a

with IndexedDB will come in handy, after all!

Yes, that is what I thought. The keep alive protocol approach should be discouraged in practical use. So, if we introduce some helper function/testing strategy for that test pattern, one based on a persistent storage would be preferable in the first place IMO. Comments from other colleagues would be appreciated. Thanks for your contribution to service workers, @jugglinmike!
