A couple of us at Google are starting to look at implementing the IndexedDB API [1] in WebKit. We thought a good first step would be to create the IDL files. The first thing I noticed is that it and the Web SQL Database API [2] have quite a few conflicts in terms of their interface names. I'm wondering how we can work around this.
One idea I had was to just add a prefix to every IndexedDB interface. Maybe something like IDB? I'd probably go ahead and give all the indexed database API files a "IDB" prefix just to make it clear which files are connected to that API. Does this sound good? Like I said, we're _just_ getting started. Once we've got the basics down (like the IDL files) we'll probably be writing up a design doc to get feedback on an end-to-end design and/or soliciting more advice on webkit-dev.
