The database name is - and should remain - a technical detail that is

description of the database. This would make policy prompts
regarding
the database (creation, increasing the size) as well as the
management
UI potentially more meaningful and clear to the user.
Done.
Great! But, I think an editorial mistake in the updated spec page -
"The openDatabase() method returns a Database object. The method takes
four arguments: a database name, a database version, a display name,
and an estimated size, in bytes, of the data that will be stored in
the database."
Second "database name" should be "database description", or even "user
friendly database description"
