Internal storage and and data partition are two different partitions on flatfish, right? Does flatfish use FUSE? If not, why we should expect internal storage also get erased?

Take Nexus S as an example, which doesn't use FUSE either. It named the data partition (userdata) as "internal storage", and the "internal storage" you mentioned here is called "USB storage". Your "USB storage" will be erased only if you asked to do so. Erase "internal storage" (userdata) won't affect the other partition.

Hi Francis,
My conclusion here is this is not a bug. If partner is looking for a way to erase "internal storage", you can talk with Bruce Huang about the user story of formatting. Gecko code already landed in v1.3.

this is our current design. we don't have a manual ways for user to choose to erase like what Android does now. 
this will be a feature that we address in v1.4 or above. it's under PM/UX planning now.
