Bug ID: 393677
Summary: Allow html5 local storage in private browsing
Product: Falkon
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
A lot of websites need Html5 local storage in order to work.
Actually that's not possible in private mode to use most of them.
For example the Flarum based forums are unusable in private browsing
(https://discuss.flarum.org).
Other browsers like chromium and firefox allow html5 local storage by default.
Actually, for testing, I'm enabling local storage in private mode by setting
QWebEngineSettings::LocalStorageEnabled to true and it seems to work fine.

Local storage get not shared between instances and get deleted on exit as it
should be.
>From a security point of view local storage may leak some private data if done
wrong, so allowing it should be an informed choice.
