-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
 Whenever user chooses 'Always allow' or 'Always block' in one of the
 NoScript XSS popups the setting is persisted in `storage-sync.sqlite` file
 and this is never cleared on browser startup as the rest of NoScript
 preferences.

 The full persisted object can be inspected via `about:debugging` -> Debug
 Noscript -> `browser.storage.sync.get('xssUserChoices')`.

 I understand this is not intended behaviour, since NoScript default is to
 not persist user choices (clearing them up on browser start).
