Something like this is likely to get standardized eventually. But I think
it will take longer than we are willing to wait.

In the meantime we should only expose this API to pages that have
permission to use DeviceStorage, which is where we are planning to use this.

This way these classes effectively become part of DeviceStorage and can
evolve with that API.
