<h2 class="no-num no-toc">Issues</h2>
<p>The use of the storage mutex to avoid race conditions is
currently considered by certain implementors to be too high a
performance burden, to the point where allowing data corruption is
considered preferable. Alternatives that do not require a
user-agent-wide per-origin script lock are eagerly sought after. If
reviewers have any suggestions, they are urged to send them to the
addresses given in the previous section.</p>
<p>More details regarding this issue are available in these
e-mails (as well as <a href="http://lists.whatwg.org/mmsearch.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org?config=whatwg-whatwg.org&restrict=&exclude=&method=and&format=short&sort=revtime&words=storage+mutex">numerous others</a>):</p>
