Re: [whatwg/storage] Allow 'session' bucket (#71)

I think it would be preferable to bias things so that extra manual bookkeeping that requires extra manual cleanup to eliminate the storage use isn't necessary.  This would also aid in more granular eviction since the browser eviction logic would see many small buckets that explicitly are not durable instead of a single large opaque durable-ish bucket.

This seems like it would massively increase the abilities of sites to track user access patterns beyond current capabilities.
