Comment:
Looked into the IndexedDB source code and it's not easy to remove data
from it. In fact, the thing does not even obey the private-browsing mode
observer topic.
We're just going to disable it for now until it becomes more privacy
friendly.
The patch to do so is in mikeperry/maint-2.2, and should be out in the
next tbb release.
