=== Type of Data ===

~~Flags:~~

* things the user enters, except for credentials (form data)

* credentials

* things cached by the UA (pages, preview images, icons)

* local data stored by the server / web application (cookies, HTML5 local storage, Flash/Silverlight local storage)

* history information (bookmarks, visited URIs)

* settings specific to a site (for instance, preferences with respect to privacy, script disabling...)

Several UAs offer to restrict the clear operation to a time range such as "today" or "last week".

~~In the API, this can be exposed as "last N minutes", or something like that.~~

~~We need to allow plugins to signal that they can't clear by time range, though.~~

~~(Return code, plus discoverability beforehand?)~~

=== Site/URI ===

Confirm, emeritus
