Sounds like it. At least in Firefox https://storage.spec.whatwg.org/
will provide that soonish, including the guarantee that the browser
won't remove your application data unless the user asks it to do so.

general problem descriptions, before delving into specific solutions
that may or may not solve the problem.)
