--- Comment #21 from Toca <tocabamboo at gmail.com> ---
I also desire support for shared workers. I have a real time application where it is expected that the user will have multiple tabs open. Real time data streams in as workers provide updates to or complete tasks on different projects. Think 100 - 200 employees providing 1 update every minute, with 3-4 supervisors watching dashboards at personal workstations. Each dashboard is a different browser tab, providing a different view into the data. Each tab/view gets it's data from the ShareWorker which has a WebSocket connection receiving these events in real time.

Without using a SharedWorked, each tab would require it's own WebSocket and would receive it's own copy of the data from the server, which has to push out a copy of the data for each of the tabs/websocket connections.

With a SharedWorked which has a single WebSocket connection that receives a single copy of the data from the server. The data is then pushed out to each tab, which updates it's view accordingly. This concept is central to the application.
