I have; I believe both the WHAT sessioning and storage APIs are complex and difficult to understand. I'm swamped right now with work, but when things ease I will prepare a longer response about these WHAT sections. Remember that specs are terrible places to innovate, which is what these two sections of the WHAT draft are doing. Instead, the WHAT group should keep an eye on the AJAX/DHTML communities and see what home-grown APIs are appearing to solve these problems, to pick the ones that seem to be the most straightforward. Otherwise we will end up with substandard ways of achieving this functionality crystalized into the WHAT spec.
