DOM storage is part of the spec. We can't just junk it. There is at least one
bug open but I was unable to reproduce it so far:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1305624
It is valid but somewhat rare. There is at least one other bug report about
storage not cleared. When I find some time I will look into it. The apis
changed and even Firefox didn't clear everything until recently.

Hmm. I tried clearing all, but they didn't make my webappsstore.sqlite
file smaller at all. I guess I will have to delete this file manually. :(
I created a .bat file to delete all instances of webappsstore.sqlite, an
instance in each of my five SeaMonkey profiles plus one instance in my
single Thunderbird profile.
I don't understand why SM doesn't clear this file since it can cause issues
like I ran into yesterday with https://flickmetrix.com. I wonder what other
web sites had issues because of this file. :(
Also, I found https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=857888
(webappsstore.sqlite is larger than it should be). Not big as mine though.
I also was going to write up a suggestion report about having SM clearing
this webappsstore.sqlite file in its clear my data option, but my old
Mozilla's Bugzilla account was disabled due to e-mail issues ("Your Bugzilla
account has been disabled due to issues delivering emails to your
address..."). Argh! :(
Due to the fact that we can remove this file (webappsstore.sqlite) without any
side-effect .. why SM needs this file ?
