Yes, we should definitely make the requirement that if the UA clears data
"automatically", i.e. without an explicit user action, it should clear the data
for a whole origin. Not individual key/value pairs. (I don't have an opinion of
that should be a MUST or SHOULD level requirement).

And yes, we shouldn't mandate any particular data-nuking policy. I'd definitely
like to have something smarter than a plain LRU, though it's unclear how much
smarts we'll build in the first step.
