Not sure which momentum you mean. We asked about localStorage and *you* suggested to use IndexedDB instead waiting for persistent partitioned localStorage which John described as an unimplemented feature. Browser features that require non-default user settings are irrelevant as you likely understand.

We don't care about the type of storage. localStorage is fine. IndexedDB is fine. All we care about is to get a non-transient partitioned data store.

So, yeah, lets get back to the original request. It is a privacy invariant feature request since the result can already be achieved by storing the data on the 1p instead (which for example ads often have access to). We (for a non-ads use case) would like to not store data on the 1p, because we'd like to avoid leaking data from the 3p to the 1p to protect user privacy.
