An aside, but could certainly be dealt with in this same bug: `Preserve Log` to me doesn't clearly communicate what this setting does. When I think "log", I think about the Console Tab and `console.log` et al.. Something like "Clear requests on navigation" or "Clear request history on navigation" (subject to further bike shedding) would better communicate the option IMO now that these are in a dropdown menu and we have a bit more space.

Yeah that's a good point.  We should change this to something clearer now that it's in a contextmenu (which gives us more space).

Also, we should probably do something similar in the Console since there's a "Preserve Log" there too <https://webkit.org/b/235541>
