            Bug ID: 199074
           Summary: Storage Access API: Cap the number of times an iframe
                    document can request access
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

We hoped that iframes that request storage access would count the number of times the user has been asked and not repeat the request over and over. However, we're seeing pretty aggressive use of the API and users are complaining. Therefore, we should implement a cap on how many times an iframed document can ask if it is explicitly denied access by the user. This is a first measure. If we see continued aggressive use of the API, we'll have to consider more drastic measures.
