Correct. The reason I'm insisting (and sorry if I sound annoying) it's
because when it comes to the web plasmoid at least, it makes sense to make
use of web technologies as much as possible IMO, it's also easier for
portability (if I want to reuse the widget with apple dashboard widgets or
windows widgets). Also, html5 storage is not a toy, it's used by google on
the iphone for example and will get bigger with the time. But yeah, having
data persistence would be good even if we're not using html5 storage.
It looks like it's qt bug though
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28682 and maybe we'll get html5
storage for free with the next qt version :)
