One week for me as well.

What's the best way to store a JSON object in a realm-agnostic place? I could parse it as a string and save that, but that seems hacky. I can't just store a WebIDL `object` off to the side, since it wraps the JavaScript realm-backed one, right?

You could use StructuredSerializeForStorage

I basically want it to be an opaque infra map, kinda like how dictionaries are when a JS object gets converted to one..

FYI, regarding [html#11933](https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/11933) (importing text modules), I intend to ask for Stage 3 for the corresponding [TC39 proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-text) at its upcoming meeting next week. I also hope that with its [PR #10](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-import-text/pull/10) we'll be able to resolve the remaining concerns about the handling of the import of non-text files as text. Merging that PR should not require any changes to the HTML spec PR.

Howdy. I've been reading 4.9.12.2 of the HTML table specifications (https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/tables.html#header-and-data-cell-semantics) and I was hoping to get some clarification on how the relationships between data cells and headers are formed. 

I'm focusing on step 10 and I'm trying to understand what would happen if a table used both `headers` on `<td>`, and `scope` on `<th>`. Would the `<td>` have the `<th>` with `scope` added to its headers list? Or would it be ignored? Or would it be replaced? 

can `scope` override `headers`?
