Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Developer Tools
2. Open Storage Tab
3. Open Local Storage 
4. Click on your current site
5. Enter in mini console at bottom: window.localStorage.setItem('test', '123'); window.localStorage.removeItem('test');
5 Alternative. Run these commands in two separate steps not too far apart in time



Actual results:

Key appears, but does not remove itself from the panel. Value is removed correctly.

Note 1: If these commands are run sufficiently further apart, the expected behavior occurs.
Note 2: Inspecting localStorage will show the key was removed immediately, only this developer tool displays out of sync.


Expected results:

Key should have flickered on to screen at most and have been removed again immediately. In 58.0.1 this seems to have happened as expected. In 58.0.2, this new unexpected behavior has surfaced.
