3) What is expected is when one installs epiphany, then uninstalls it
via Ubuntu Software Center, then reinstalls it the cookies and personal
information does not persist.
4) What happens instead is that this information does persist as if the
program was never uninstalled. Thank you for considering this and just
wanted to bring to your attention.
