Getting back to Boris question concerning 'length'...
Based upon the above signature, IDBCursor.prototype.continue.length should be 0. I verified this on FF.
void continue(any key, optional dictionary opts {string primaryKey);
according to the ES6 rules (assuming that the second argument is defined as a ES6 default value parameter) the value of the 'length' of the new form should be 1.
So the value of the 'length' property could be used to sniff for the new capability.
