You should also know that...

We have submitted tests covering all the features above to web-platform-tests. Chrome (with the Experimental Web Platform Features flag) passes all the test cases (159/159). Firefox (nightly) passes over 98.7% (157/159) of the test cases, and Safari (Tech Preview 23) passes over 99.3% (158/159) of the test cases.

Firefox has already shipped all the IndexedDB 2.0 features mentioned above, based on the Editor's Draft specification, in Firefox 51. Safari is about to ship the features above in Safari 10.1, which is included in the OS X 10.12.4 beta. We (Chrome) have implemented the features under the Experimental Web Platform Features flag, and plan to ship them following this TAG review.

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please select one):
