Speaking only for myself: I have been waiting for this for, well,
basically since IndexedDB landed. I am a bit worried by this being
Mozilla-specific, though.

If my memory serves, W3C specifies the IDBRequest interface which, in
the scope of IndexedDB, is essentially the same as DOMRequest. Is this
change compatible with whatever is in store for IDBRequest?

Cheers,
 David
