Why don't backbone localStorage keys seem accessible?

Question

... through the console.

If I open up the console in Firefox will auto-fill this value:

localStorage.todos-backbone

I get an error as such:

backbone is not defined

which makes me think that it is parsing the - that backbone uses to create the key.

@user3293082 Because they didn't want to? I use localStorage keys of the form `USERID+".something"` all the time. — Niet the Dark Absol, Mar 02 '14 at 14:34

Uhm... hm.

localStorage['todos-backbone'];

Otherwise the - is a minus sign and it's looking for a variable called backbone to subtract from localStorage.todos (which also doesn't exist)
