Data in localStorage on the other hand is kept indefinitely.
.. Note ::
Since version 0.8.0, the use of local storage is not recommended. The
statuses (online, away, busy etc.) of your roster contacts are cached in
the browser storage. If you use local storage, these values are stored for
multiple sessions, and they will likely become out of sync with your contacts'
actual statuses. The session storage doesn't have this problem, because
roster contact statuses will not become out of sync in a single session,
only across more than one session.
