This part is actually quite a lot of work. Cookies, localStorage and
appcache are all heavily intertwined with the gecko profile, and for
most 3rd party apps that's where basically all of the data is going to
be stored.
Appcache needs to be rewritten for a few other reasons anyway, so
while it is a big chunk of work, maybe we should just suck up and do
it.
LocalStorage was recently rewritten and so is in much better shape.
Fixing this is likely a lot less work. But it does mean that we have
to change form having one bid database for all data, to having
separate databases per origin.
Cookies I have no idea what's involved with separating storage on a
per-app basis.

Cookies would not actually be that hard, I think. We already have a
(ugly) system that changes the database handle based on private
browsing, so it's not too hard to envision a system that grabs a
database pointer out of a hashtable based on the requesting app.
