https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25894

           Summary: It is possible for LocalStorage to not be persistent
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jorlow at google.com

LocalStorage is not database backed if
page->settings()->localStorageDatabasePath() returns "".  Instead, the code
should return an immutable LocalStorage (like during private browsing) rather
than returning a mutable (but not database backed) version.

This is described in more detail in this email thread:
https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2009-May/007790.html

I'm happy to take this on and should be able to get to it in the next couple
weeks.
