1. on b2g, goto native.123done.org
2. click sign in on top right
3. sign in with a user, and confirm user via email
4. start at step 1 again

actual: you'll see an existing user in the native UI and user has no way to remove it.

expected: when you clear history/data/cache, this localStorage should also be removed.

That's not true. You can remove it by doing "this is not me." I just confirmed that working on 1.01.

Works for me on 1.01.

jason informed me that I can do this via Settings > App Permissions > Clear Bookmarks Data.  Closing

Edwin, you had talked about having a way for users to explicitly clear persona sign-in data, with a use case in which people are sharing a phone and want to sign out everywhere and blow away the history, so passwords would be required again.

The "this is not me" switch would do that if you hit each RP separately, but can still imagine there would be value in a "Logout Everywhere" button, or a "Clear Persona Sign-in Data" button.

"Clear Bookmarks Data" might have that effect (I had no idea it did!), but it's not  obvious from the name that it would.
