ServiceWorkers have arrived and the issue unfolds further: Now it is possible to store data into, e.g., IndexedDB without any partitioning applied. The whole concept of partitioning is not well-defined anymore in a ServiceWorker environment since there is no enclosing context such as in the pure iframe case. So one could easily cook up an iframe that spawns a service worker and stores data regardless of the surrounding top-level context.
