Description:
When the "ui.javascript.useClientSideStorage = true" config setting is enabled, the keys it generates are disliked by IE7, which reports a script error on every page load.

How to repeat:
enable the option, load mem in IE7

This option exists at the moment for Leith and http-request intermediaries that have a problem with the super-large cookies we can end up with for storing client-side data.  I would *like*, however, for us to use client-side storage for these things.  I *meant* to flip the default of this value at the outset of the 2.2 dev cycle, but apparently I forgot, and we're not making the change at this point.  So ... 2.3, hopefully.

To be clear, we ship 2.1 and 2.2 with a default value of "ui.javascript.useClientSideStorage = false".  Under this setting, there is no problem with IE7.
