We previously discussed making this change only for Safari, based on the concern that other clients might treat localStorage as permanent storage. Did you change your mind about that? If so, why?

> +        platformExcludeFromBackup();
> +        m_hasExcludedFromBackup = true;
> +    }
> +#endif

Can we build this logic into the helper function?
