How much would it be worth to you each month to be able to cover the costs of eternal storage for everyone's friends list notes, just on the chance that when you take a break for a year or six, your list comes back? (Believe me when I tell you there are no-longer players who had extensive friends lists for which this storage would be required).
I would imagine it's client side like it is in other games. Elder Scrolls Online has this feature. Guild Wars 2 as well as World of Warcraft also has this feature if I recall accurately.
