lsoData sounds strange, what about localSharedObjects or pluginData. Flash for
example also kills history and cache, not only lsos

[Mike West, 2011/12/13 15:28:47]

pluginData makes sense, and better matches what we're actually doing. We should
change BDR's external interface to use this term to match
content::PluginDataRemover. Pulling part of this out into
http://crbug.com/107355, for which a CL is in-flight; the rest is in the newly
uploaded patch.

I think the official name is web databases?

[Mike West, 2011/12/13 15:28:47]

The official name, unfortunately, seems to be "Web SQL Databases".
http://www.w3.org/TR/webdatabase/  I've been calling it WebSQL forever, but
that's no promise that it's actually common usage. CCing Kathy/Meggin for input
on this.

[jochen (gone - plz use gerrit), 2011/12/14 19:30:58]

In Chrome, we call it Web Databases (e.g.
http://codesearch.google.com/codesearch#OAMlx_jo-ck/src/chrome/app/generated_...)
