http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2012/09/10/clearing-browser-data/ reveals
that despite the documentation on MDC
(https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/Storage#Storage_location_and_clearing_the_data),
window.localStorage is NOT cleared by the "cookie-changed" observer event.
We need to clear it explicitly. Isn't that cute. Another evercookie
vector.
Since we enabled DOM storage for FF17, this is a regression, and a pretty
bad one at that.
