global.data #69

Hi, I was looking at global objects and I've found the global.data object.

{"method":"Runtime.evaluate","params":{"expression":"JSON.stringify(global.data)","objectGroup":"console","includeCommandLineAPI":true,"doNotPauseOnExceptionsAndMuteConsole":false,"returnByValue":false,"generatePreview":true},"id":82}

I suppose it is node-webkit-agent specific. Can't it be kept private?

I have no time now to clean it, but I recommend not to use globals if not strictly necessary.

Do you agree?

It is part of the console agent I believe. That is the message the front-end sends to the agent in order to evaluate variables in Node side. Although, I'm not sure it currently works since the debugger agent is not complete.
