Actually it is possible (see Window: storage event)
Is it what you're looking for? 🤔

I think that only applies if another session makes the change.

I was more thinking component-A makes a change to settings.sound and component-B has an event listener that means it can see the change without having to drill props.

Ok I got you, and you're right, it would be useful. In that case, I think I'd go with the useContext hook.
