The LocalStorage object exists in the js world. Initially web crawlers didn't understand/run javascript, but just rendered markup as static content. But gradually Google and Bing (among others) are working hard to achieve crawlers that understand JS as the browser does. I've found here a similar question.

However this sounds like a flaw/security issue. Could you imagine what a malware-crawler could do with this? Maybe steal identities/sensitive information/etc. So really I think if crawlers could do that, it would be in a limited way.
