IndexedDB 2.0

IndexedDB 2.0 introduces a few APIs that optimize some database access patterns and improve programming ergonomics. Chrome will support the full standard by shipping the following features: support for binary keys, object store and index renaming, getKey() on IDBObjectStore, getPrimaryKey() on IDBIndex.
