The issue is that I relay on the syncing of the DB during running of the
browser to keep the PageURLs pruned, then only pruned on startup based on
Icons.  This is correct - I'd wager each of those 119 Icons Mark has are
retained on startup.

However, there are two problems with this -
1 - the initial conversion from the old icon DB can bring over alot of PageURL
cruft with it
2 - if the client (the browser) doesn't correctly retain/release during its
run, uninteresting PageURLs will slowly populate the DB

The fix is simple-ish - to do the startup prune based on retained pageURLs. 
It's a slightly more complicated technique than the IconURL based scheme we
currently do, but will be straightforward to implement.
