Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] Add IDBTransaction commit() method (#242)

@aliams My understanding of this feature is that it lets sites hint to the implementation that they're done with the transaction. It's intended to enable optimizations, not to be a new capability.

A malicious site can still cause a lot of disk writes by opening up many transactions and letting them auto-commit. Committing is still asynchronous, so the implementation has the opportunity to rate-limit and/or batch transactions.

Does this help reason about abuse potential for the new API?
