           Summary: [IndexedDB] Description attribute of IDBDatabase
                    doesn't play nicely with run to completion
           Product: WebAppsWG
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW

When opening a database, one of the parameters is description.  If you specify
it, that description is set on the database, no matter what the previous
description was.  There's also a "description" attribute on IDBDatabase(+
Sync).  Since IndexedDB is usable by workers (and other pages' event loops, in
some implementations) this presents a problem with run to completion.  The
easiest solution is to spec IDBDatabase(Sync).description to be the description
you passed in to .open (and not a live value).

I believe this is the only synchronous attribute with such a problem.
