Comment:
Now that the "relevant namespace object" term has gone from Web IDL (since
modules have been removed) some text around here needs to be rewritten. You
probably want to refer to you don't need to mention the ECMAScript global
object specifically, but instead you might want to refer to Web IDL's
#dfn-expose, which can be used to control which interfaces are exposed in a
particular ECMAScript global environment. Just say "ECMAScript global
environments for dedicated workers must not _expose_ the
SharedWorkerGlobalScope interface." and vice versa. I think that should be
sufficient.

I've tried to fix this, but I've no idea if what I wrote is right. Please do review it.

Comment 4 Cameron McCormack 2012-08-09 00:37:38 UTC 
The change looks good to me.  (The transitive requirement is probably a bit of a pain if you want to know, from looking at the spec, whether a given interface should be exposed or not.)
