It looks like WebView recently moved all the directories to a subdirectory of `Default`.
This caused Clear DOM Storage to always show ghosted, even when there was something to clear.
Clear and Exit still cleared all DOM storage, but it wasn't possible to just clear DOM storage while the app was running.
It is worth giving me credit for the bug report https://redmine.stoutner.com/issues/1241#change-4233 . Rather not discredit me because of lacking documentation having no way to explain the bug. Sometimes your, Soren, feelings can be decieving.

To be fair, your bug report wasn't really that the DOM Storage status wasn't being updated by Privacy Browser. In fact, nothing in what you wrote indicated that at all.
It was only that I tend to double check things that I decided to verify that the DOM Storage status check was still working. Mostly because this isn't the first time Android's System WebView had modified the directory structure to make the check stop working.
fair, quite contrare, because of lacking documentation having no way to explain the bug I gave possibly the best bug report.

That's good for you.
