One of the things I noticed that seems to be missing from the IndexDB specification is the collation algorithm used for sorting the index keys. There are lots of collation differences between databases, if left unspecified I'm afraid this would negatively affect interoperability between IndexDB implementations. CouchDB has a good collation specification for rich keys (any JSON type) and defers to the Unicode Collation Algorithm once it hits string comparisons. This might be a good starting point. http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/View_collation#Collation_Specification http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/ -Mikeal
