The steps you describe and their outcome are the expected behavior. If you run Clear and Exit (which is run every time the last tab is closed with the X or from the Navigation Menu, see the Local Storage tab in the Guide inside the app) then the WebView cache is deleted.
You can also achieve this behavior by enabling Incognito Mode in the settings, but that clears the information after every page load, including the WebView history.
I might consider clearing the cache after every page load by default, which should produce your desired behavior. I will just have to think hard about any unintended consequences.
