--- Comment #35 from Sumer Jabri <sumer.jabri at craftersoftware.com> ---
I work on a project called Crafter CMS (https://craftercms.org). We use SharedWorkers to communicate and sync between multiple browsing contexts and share important runtime data and token(s). Because we require the various tabs to be in sync and a single request to fetch the backend — like our auth token — a regular web worker is not suitable and neither is a service worker because its lifespan is intermittent and we require the worker to be alive as long as any number of tabs are open.

The SharedWorker was the right solution for us.

Please add this feature back.
