Arora needs a cookie-control equivalent for HTML 5 DOM storage

[GoogleCodeExporter]

At present, Arora doesn't seem to offer an interface for seeing all
databases in the HTML 5 DOM Storage system equivalent to the cookie
manager. (Just the per-site view in the developer tools)

This and integration with the cookie control system (yes/session/ask/no) is
important since advertisers are starting to add HTML 5 DOM storage to their
roster of "cookie undelete" systems. (Flash cookies are already common but
easily handled using a mixture of ClickToFlash and cronjob-based deletion)

Ideally, it'd be separate from the cookie control semantics so that,
eventually, an interface similar to Firefox's CS Lite could be used. (I
could say "silently allow all cookies as session cookies. Block DOM storage
and display a statusbar icon for quick whitelist control")

Agreed.   I have started some work on this, but the API in QtWebKit in 4.5 
simply doesn't work as far as I could 
determine so this will be another feature that will have to wait until 4.6.

This functionality is now in the web inspector of WebKit trunk. Hopefully it 
will be
 in Qt 4.6 when it is released.
