After some testing, it looks like the plugin doesn't do the migration from
WebKit folder to the Caches folder. It should happens when users upgrade to
iOS5.1 before that fix (before upgrading the app with the backup fix). I know
that sometime, the WebKit folder is completely deleted during the iOS 5.1
update, but sometime, it's still there...
Here is an example of code to handle that migration :

everything to the Document folder, it's for the PGSQLitePlugin)

> Dear Dev
> WebKit data (localstorage or local SQLite) are now stored in Library/ Caches
> folder (instead of Library/WebKit folder). This is a big problem for all apps
> using UIWebView and storing user data, because they will no longer be backed
> up and may be deleted. There are a lot of apps using localstorage or SQLite
> as a critical feature.
> The SQLite database gets deleted because the database is saved in a location
> on the filesystem which Apple does not consider to contain persistent data.
> *Steps to Reproduce:*
> In a UIWebView, create a new DB or use localStorage with JavaScript.
> You can see that the WebKit data is now stored in Library/Caches :
> *Expected Results:*
> We should at least specify the directory of WebKit data (and to set it
> to Documents/ for critical data)
> *Actual Results:*
> The WebKit data are stored in Library/Caches folder, and can be
> deleted
> *Regression:*
> To migrate database location from Library/Caches to some other location such
> as Documents.
