[5.37] Expose localStorage. Allow forms/ alerts to use localStorage to implement 'Don't Show This Notice Again' activities

Workflow 5.37 introduced the new "Visibility" input to Set Application Data. Specifying "application" or "global" will cause the data to be persisted in Local Storage.

We often need to present end users with notices, updates, alerts and links to new information. Right now there's no way to let he user bypass these notices after reading them once when running a workflow from startup. A simple "Don't Show This Message again" checkbox using localStorage would save users ( and developers ) a lot of aggravation. No one wants to see the same message pop up every time they visit the site.

Geocortex currently notes "As it stands, the localStorage property is not exposed in Geocortex Workflow, so to use this a custom Activity would need to be built...support for the Window localStorage property makes for a good Idea submission ".

So, please, expose localStorage or implement the activity as an optom in forms etc... for a much better user experience.
