It really depends, it will purge on browser close yes but it still allows access that make not have been intended by your application for use by others also the refresh token may also be stored. The danger is in someone getting this token from an active session and using it outside of its intended parameters not the normal use case.

Not doubting you, but I would love to see the methods to make this happen. Is your concern from a 3rd party script included on the page?

From my experience memory is safe between origins in the same way cookies are. And it is the dev's responsibility to not do something stupid with the token like window.FacebookToken = OAuthToken;. But that holds for traditional session cookies as well.
