localStorage Isn't Accessible in Chrome's --single-process Mode

So I'm trying* to use Chromium's --single-process flag (yes, I know it's the most dangerous thing in the world, etc., no need for a lecture, thanks!) with localStorage, and for some reason, it looks like whenever Chro开发者_开发百科miums is started in single-process mode, localStorage no longer has any data accessible from it.

What's the reason behind this? And is there any way to get around it?

(If that means recompiling Chromium, let me know what I need to modify where.)

I have tried to search for some results about your issue, so I`v entered the irc (on freenode, #chromium channel) and because rsleevi don't have account I just copied our conversation:

Me:

hey, does anyone knows about Chromium's "--single-process" and localstorage bug ?

rsleevi:

<+rsleevi> That's a bit of a broad question. But the easy answer is "--single-process" isn't a "supported" flag - it truly is intended for debugging purposes only by devs. If you're using/relying on it for general use, then theres your problem :) <+rsleevi> It's reasonably expected that a number of things won't work or won't work right in --single-process

Me:

yes I understand that is for debugging pupposes, but I just want to know why localStorage doesn't work well while other stuff does :)

rsleevi:

<+rsleevi> Well, the answer is because --single-process isn't "supported" :-) [13:58:32] <+rsleevi> The design of new features always designs for the multi-process scenario. If it happens to work in --single-process, serendipity, if not, c'est le vie

Me:

OK I understand. Just thought maybe there is some "offical why"

rsleevi:

<+rsleevi> Generally, no, there's not some decision "We don't want to support X in --single-process"... It's "X doesn't happen to work? Oh well"

<+rsleevi> If you're using --single-process, realize that (just like the info bar says) you're running without all the nice security features, and your configuration/features are expected to regularly break or be unusable. I really can't stress the "not-supported" aspect enough, in the hope that maybe I can sway you :-)

Me:

I don't know if you are a memeber on stackoverflow, but I`m trying to help this mate here: localStorage Isn't Accessible in Chrome's --single-process Mode , maybe you can answer his question ( if you are a member ) Don't want to take your copyrights :)

rsleevi:

[14:09:57] <+rsleevi> Heh. I don't have an account, sounds like your mate doesn't want my lecture, but the answer is just like the info bar says "unsupported" :-) marsbear's second answer is right on track - it's just a development aide [14:10:08] <+rsleevi> that is, Chromium development, not general webdev

I know that there isn't a fully answer here, but maybe it will help you.
