At the time, I was assuming we would have just the one database spec, so
Web Database made sense as a I name. Given the new direction of the
working group, I agree that renaming Web Database to Web SQL Database or
something would be sensible. We should probably also rename Web Simple
Database to something more descriptive, so that people can distinguish
them more easily.

I strongly agree.

I agree with renaming both. Would "Web B-Tree Database" be an accurate description of SimpleDB? Does anyone else have a more accurate term?
