What browsers support globalStorage?

Question

What browser (versions) support globalStorage? This is a deprecated JavaScript client-side browser storage API.

I see http://caniuse.com/namevalue-storage , but it does not explicitly mention globalStorage.

Here's what the Mozilla Developer Network has to say about GlobalStorage:

Non-standard

This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

Obsolete since Gecko 13.0 (Firefox 13.0 / Thunderbird 13.0 / SeaMonkey 2.10)

This feature is obsolete. Although it may still work in some browsers, its use is discouraged since it could be removed at any time. Try to avoid using it.

As stated by people with much more authority on the subject than myself: It would be highly inadvisable to try to code to the old GlobalStorage spec, since it doesn't exist in any codified form anymore. GlobalStorage support has already been removed from Mozila software as of 2011. If you need to provide support for storage in extremely old browser versions which don't support LocalStorage/SessionStorage, you'd be much better off seeking a polyfill (such as sessionstorage) to provide support for those systems which actually currently exist as standards.
