Simply adding > "version" to it seems kind of confusing though. Adding it to the request won't help as the versionchange event is fired at other databases, not at the request. Adding it to the request is also not needed since the new version isn't something that is the result of the request, it's something you specify when creating the request. I think we can leave IDBVersionChangeEvent as it is, it's an entirely different beast from success/error. / Jonas
