Clearing one site data and cookies wipes additional data

Since recently (90+ versions) I've noticed that nightTab seemingly randomly resets itself to default settings which wasn't caused by browser wide cookies and data reset. After poking a bit, I've found a consistent way to reproduce this issue:

  1. Visit any site which stores cookies
  2. Clear data and cookies on that site
  3. Open new tab and have nighttab reset

Besides clearing out extension cookie, some websites also partially reset their settings, but not login information.
