Comment(by cypherpunks):

 Now Firefox going to write and delete db's records over long live media.
 That true for downloads.sqlite. While it running a file download it keeps
 a record.

 If db's file going to grow and shrink for big queued downloads then urls
 and local paths going to leak.

 No such behavior if user_pref("browser.privatebrowsing.autostart", true);
