Description

In order to support partitioning service workers we will need to update the spec to be written in terms of the storage spec. In particular, the service worker spec needs to use storage keys instead of origins.

Research direction

Start with the Service Worker specification and the linked Storage specification sections on storage keys. Find the Service Worker algorithms and definitions that currently use origins, then update the relevant references so partitioned service workers are described in terms of storage keys; done means the spec consistently follows the Storage spec without origin-based gaps.
