This is how it's specced.  Please see http://dev.w3.org/html5/webstorage/

"When the setItem(), removeItem(), and clear() methods are called on a Storage object x that is associated with a session storage area, if the methods did something, then in every HTMLDocument object whose Window object's sessionStorage attribute's Storage object is associated with the same storage area, other than x, a storage event must be fired, as described below."

and

"When the setItem(), removeItem(), and clear() methods are called on a Storage object x that is associated with a local storage area, if the methods did something, then in every HTMLDocument object whose Window object's localStorage attribute's Storage object is associated with the same storage area, other than x, a storage event must be fired, as described below."

This question has come up a few times, so I'm not convinced it's the right course of action though.  Maybe you should bring this up on WhatWG?  If so, please cc me?
