Other browsers don't seem to have a strong safety guard for this feature.
In other words just setting the environment variable makes browsers start recording encryption keys into local PC.

If the recorded keys is secure and not stolen, the feature itself is secure too.
But we shouldn't assume all systems which use WebKit are implemented right and secure.
So I think offering developers the disabling option is reasonable.

Also I'm concerning browsers don't have any explicit way to reset or remove recorded keys.
