Description Jeremy Orlow 2011-02-08 21:03:36 UTC 
After page unload, all IDBDatabases attached to the document should have .close() called on them.

See "[IndexedDB] setVersion blocked on uncollected garbage IDBDatabases" for more backstory.

The same applies to workers.  If the last document on a worker's list of documents is discarded, or a worker is killed or terminated for any reason, all databases opened by the worker should be closed deterministically without waiting for garbage collection.

This is already specced, actually.
