Re: [WebSQL] Any future plans, or has IndexedDB replaced WebSQL?

If you can do it with even one IndexedDB implementation out there then kudos and hats off to you. :)
You keep bringing this point up, but only a naive implementation of 
IndexedDB would bring a device to it's knees (or a poorly implemented 
thread scheduler, which I don't expect the iPad to have).  The API is 
asynchronous, which means it doesn't need to (nor should it) happen on 
any thread that the UI is being drawn on.

You still have a point about it possibly taking longer, but even then, 
that will be implementation dependent.
