The localestorage file is saved per app in 
~/.local/share/APPNAME/QML/OfflineStorage/Databases/UNIQUE_ID_OR_SIMILAR.
db 

QSettings also stored ~/.local/share/appname/something...
 
So both QSettings and LocaleStorage can be readable by other apps with some 
hacks. So non is better on security concern. Or wait maybe SQL is bit better because 
its not readable from text editor atleast ;)

But I agree SQL  is bit annoying to work with.

Would be nice with higher levcel api for insert/delete/update...
