There are three places where XDG env vars are used:

WebKit/gtk/webkit/webkitapplicationcache.cpp: * $XDG_CACHE_HOME/webkitgtk/applications and cannot be modified.
WebKit/gtk/webkit/webkiticondatabase.cpp: * ~/.local/share/webkit/icondatabase, depending on XDG_DATA_HOME.
WebKit/gtk/webkit/webkitwebsettings.cpp:    * "enable-html5-local-storage". The default path is $XDG_DATA_HOME/webkit/databases/.

The icon database can be considered "cache". The HTML5 local storage can't, and sould remain where it is by default. However, it can be changed by the application via the "html5-local-storage-database-path" property in WebKitWebSettings.

I'm going to prepare a patch to change the icon database path.
