Description Carlos Garcia Campos 2018-07-10 04:04:30 PDT 
This isn't exposed because we have convenient methods in JSCContext to get and set properties on the global object. However, getting the global object could be useful in some cases, for example to give it a well known name like 'window' in browsers and GJS.

What specifically are you planning to use it for?

Surely it's not required to give it the name "window" in Epiphany?
