           Summary: IndexedDB: Add API for enumerating databases

            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Indexed Database API

This was proposed and discussed in this thread:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2011JulSep/1528.html

Plunking this in the bug database so we can track interest/objections/alternate
proposals. Discussion stalled on the thread, but continued interest has been
expressed offline.

Chrome has implemented this as webkitIndexedDB.getDatabaseNames() in response
to user requests; the primary uses cases are for application debugging and
diagnostics for deployed web apps. Tools like the Web Inspector which provide
an interactive means of exploring local IDB instances address the former use
case, but not the latter.
