Can the `localStorage` be changed to a "index only archive"?

[geovanisouza92]

Because, I was thinking "what happens with my albums if I clear the localStorage accidentally or using a system cleaning tool?".

My idea is like this:

• Use localStorage to only save the current index-archive selected;
• If there's none, allow user create a new one, or select an existing one;
• Then, save the links (and maybe the thumbnails) in that index-only archive.

This way, the user will never loose the albums index, even if it clears the browser.

Hm, maybe I don't fully understand your suggestion, but I'm not sure that it improves the situation very much. In either case, Beaker maintains the album in the user's Library. It's true that indexing the URL for the album in localStorage means that it can be erased, but all the same, but the URLs for the user's albums can be re-added.

It would be great to add a button to allow the user to add an existing album though!
