           Summary: Modifying functions should throw when called under
                    invalid conditions
           Product: WebAppsWG
           Version: unspecified

        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW

          Priority: P2
         Component: Indexed Database API

There are a number of situations where we immediately upon call to modifying
functions know that the call was made in error without consulting the database.
This applies in the following situations:

1. When IDBObjectStore.add, IDBObjectStore.put, IDBObjectStore.remove,
IDBCursor.update or IDBCursor.remove is called from a READ_ONLY transaction.
2. When the object provided to add/put/update can't be cloned using the
structured clone algorithm. (we can rely on HTML5 to define when and what this
throws)
3. When IDBCursor.update is called in such a way that it alters the key of the
object. (only apples to in-line keys)
4. When IDBObjectStore.add or IDBObjectStore.put is called on an objectStore
which doesn't use a key generator, and no key is provided (note that keys are
supplied in-line in some stores)
