While looking at a Chrome bug [1], I reviewed the Indexed DB draft, section 3.3.1 [2] Opening a database: "These steps are not run for any other connections with the same origin and name but with a higher version" And the note: "This means that if two databases with the same name and origin, but with different versions, are being opened at the same time, the one with the highest version will attempt to be opened first. If it is able to successfully open, then the one with the lower version will receive an error." I interpret that as (and perhaps the spec should be updated to read): "This means that if two open requests are made to the database with the same name and origin at the same time, the open request with the highest version will be processed first. If it is able to successfully open, then the request with the lower version will receive an error." So far as I can tell with a test [3], none of Chrome (33), Firefox (27), or IE (10) implement this per spec. Instead of processing the request with the highest version first, they process the first request that was received. Is my interpretation of the spec correct? Is my test [3] correct? If yes and yes, should we update the spec to match reality?
