It will come handy in a case where application wants to flush an entire set in one go instead of iterating though a list of origins. Please let me know your opinion.

If we add the static API and that the code changes underneat later (because it's not ideal), we'll have to suffer consequences that might not be worth the candle.

I understood the concern you explained. I will remove this API as of now and later if required I will take it up with proper fix in SecurityPolicy to support clearing entries for a specific origin.
