I got a problem, having my Shared Worker ([0]) shared between my tabs with the same origin. I have reproduced the problem with the example ([1]) given in the API documentation. In [2] I can see a Shared Worker opening for each new tab. Trying the same with Google Chrome, only one Shared Worker is started ([3]).
