It seems like this is something that should be fixed in the IndexedDB spec. > One idea I had was to just add a prefix to every IndexedDB interface. Maybe > something like IDB?

Even if you rename the files, having multiple interfaces with the same interface name will still cause problems. I don't think it will even compile. We could do some interim thing but we really need to get the spec fixed. > Like I said, we're _just_ getting started.
