Bug to track the various things needed to improve Clear-Site-Data.

Depends on: 1685355
Type: defect → enhancement

I tried to use Clear-Site-Data: "cache" in my application to force reloading of SPA resources (since browsers ignore mostly all cache options including etags). But it does not work, it looks like support was removed starting version 94, but Chrome supports it.
What is the reason to do that and how can we expect it back?

Moving to component, where all the bugs are filed and the work is done.

Component: Storage: StorageManager → Data Sanitization
Product: Core → Toolkit

Reason was https://github.com/privacycg/storage-partitioning/issues/11 (See Bug 1671182). And we do intent to restore Clear-Site-Data: cache functionality (tracked in Bug 1838506)
