Description

I assume we're wanting to avoid breaking other BlueOS Storage IDs, so maybe cockpit- should be an automatically applied prefix inside the useBlueOsStorage function instead? It seems unnecessary for Cockpit developers to need to write "cockpit" in lots of code locations whenever there's interaction with external systems 🤷‍♂️

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the `useBlueOsStorage` function to understand how storage keys are currently set and used. Then implement automatic addition of the 'cockpit ' prefix within that function to avoid requiring developers to manually add it in multiple places.
