I'm creating a new GObject as Gustavo suggests, thanks. I think all features
you have proposed can be easily done using directly the IconDatabase API. But
the expiration time is hardcoded in WebCore (set to 4 days). About privacy
issues, we are lucky because IconDatabase has a private browsing mode that
avoids writtings in disk.
