Re: [w3c/IndexedDB] Disallow starting readwrite transactions while readonly transactions are running? (#253)

How so? Is that based on the assumption that people are relying on the ordering of transactions? Like @pwnall is describing, I did not know I _could_ rely on the order, nor would I (if and when I'd need it, I would handle such a thing in the application).

IMO IndexedDB has never been optimal for large amounts of data (with backpressure), which means you'll have a "blind spot" in the spectrum of use cases. If no one uses IndexedDB like that (because they can't, not because they don't want to) then metrics will not show a performance degradation.
