FWIW, Opera is primarily interested in implementing the APIs currently

for going to Last Call.
I am puzzled that you feel that specifying the semantics for the SQL
dialect would be straightforward.
I didn't say it would be straightforward. It might be, but I really
wouldn't know.
We have no experience of using more than a single database
implementation for WebStorage. Its kind of interesting that the WG is
attempting to standardize that which has no more than a single
implementation.
The draft specification was there before the implementation and there's a
plug-in implementation (Gears) as well. It sees better to coordinate new
APIs then to end up with four incompatible ones.
