Describe the feature and its purpose:
The library would implement the W3C spec http://www.w3.org/TR/IndexedDB/
like the Web Storage and Web Database specs are implemented.
Microsoft and Mozilla are *never* going to implement the Web Database spec
due to its dependency on SQL and/or SQLite. Therefore they submitted their
own spec called "Indexed Database API" which in summary provides a fast
searching, asynchronous and transactional API on a KEY/VALUE store.
WebKit is also implementing this API, as of recently:
