Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] API to enumerate databases (#31)

An obvious difference in implementation I could see would be if web content processes all each hit the database files on disk themselves and used the application process as the gatekeeper for event dispatching to other connections, etc.

In that style of implementation there's a lot more variability in what happens "If a getAllDatabases call is made while a version change transaction is in progress"

But even in WebKit's implementation, the version change that was in progress before getAllDatabases was issued *might* complete before the getAllDatabases call actually executes.

It's racy, it's non-deterministic, and I can't think of a use-case of this API where that's not fine.
