Excerpt from https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2017/11/20/extensions-in-firefox-58/:

The browsingData API now supports clearing the indexedDB storage area
The browsingData API supports clearing localStorage by hostname, similar to cookies

Currently uMatrix uses a content script to try to clear localStorage as per cookie cell, while it does not touch indexedDB storage due to missing API to enumerate databases.

Are storages being cleared in Chrome? I unchecked all hosts files, purged all caches. Storage used didn't decrease and stayed at ~3.3MB.

Yes, It would be nice to have control over allowing or blocking indexedDB storage throw the popup panel and auto clearing of indexedDB storage, if that’s what you were thinking.

Also, I think this API will be supported from the 23rd in the main FF release.

This may not currently be possible in chrome but it should work well in FF.
