Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] Support full text indexes (#44)

+1, big missing feature between WebSQL and IDB.

I agree this should be closed though in favor of #33 (w/ worklets). It ought to be out-of-scope to define particular stemmers for particular languages (e.g. Porter/English by default, as SQLite does). The worklet solution neatly allows e.g. [Lunrjs](http://lunrjs.com/) to create their own. Folks will also inevitably want very complex stemmer functionality (e.g. "parse this field both as French and as English, index the union of all tokens") and such things should be solved in userland IMO.

Unsolved by #33 however: how to implement a scoring function, e.g. TF-IDF, DisMax, etc.
