Hi All,

Ben Turner put some comments in the bug, but I'll add a bit here too.
The idea was that cursor.continue() should reuse the same request that
was created when .openCursor was called. That makes using cursors
significantly easier since you just have to register one 'success'
handler, instead of registering a new one for each call to
.continue().

We also remove the return value from .continue() and make it "return
void". It doesn't make sense to return a bool indicating if this was
the last entry or not since we only know that information
asynchronously.

/ Jonas
