I'd be interested in seeing a reasonable set of semantics defining how that
specific script tag knows what its "this" value is; so far I understand
that inside those script tags, |this| !== |window|.


@Erik, what about |self|? That actually makes more sense and *almost* has a
precedent in worker global scope
