Comment (by mikeperry):
I am not sure if enabling indexedDB is the right move now. I am thinking
it might be better to remove the pref checks in
IDBFactory::CreateForWindow() and
IDBFactory::CreateForMainThreadJSInternal(), so that the behavior for
private browsing mode and the pref is identical (due to the checks in
FactoryOp::CheckPermission()).
This should still fix twitter and ln5's bank, and is probably a better
option than trying to write a bunch of code to clear indexedDB state at
this point.
