Another perspective about the problem: what about doing so with
SharedIndexedDB in the same way of SharedWorkers? They allow to be
accessed using a name, so it would be useful also here...
If you need a better use case, I've been last saturday on the
FirefoxOS App Days here at Madrid and talking

The use case here is not compelling enough for this amount of complexity.
IndexedDB is not guaranteed to be persistent so you can't really have a
server-less webapp if you want reliability.
I have keep thinking about this topic and found a good solution: implement
a CORS-like functionality.
This way, when an IndexedDB database is created for the first time (like
when browser ask to the user if s/he allow that the page store data on this

How about ad firm collect data from multiple origins?
Since user agent can delete IndexedDB data anytime, duplicate copy of
IndexedDB data to be more persistant is not much meaningful.
I think it is too much complex in security and privacy issue, but very
In this situation, I will go with CouchDB.
If used with IndexedDB, I will send data back JSON data to blob storage
server like Google Cloud Storage or S3.

Perhaps what we need (and I am ducking as I say this) is a meta tag for
web pages, e.g.
meta name=previously-known-as content=http://olddomain.com:80;
or
meta name=same-as content=http://olddomain.com:80;

This could then be used by the browser to allow the
As a practical matter, you could just make an entry in your /etc/hosts mapping
the domain to localhost and write a web page that dumps the indexeddb as json.
Serve that from your local web server and hit it with your browser.
