Status: Partially Accepted
Change Description: see diff given below
Rationale: I added some informative text about this to the window.postMessage()
section. I didn't add anything to the MessagePort section since an attacker
couldn't get a MessagePort from another domain unless the other domain
explicitly sent one to the attacker. Let me know if you think I should add
anything else.
