It is possible to restructure these interfaces differently so that there is less redundancy. My proposal is the following IDL: [Supplemental, NoInterfaceObject] interface DatabaseAsyncOpen { Database openDatabase(in DOMString name, in DOMString version, in DOMString displayName, in unsigned long estimatedSize, in optional DatabaseCallback creationCallback); }; Window implements DatabaseAsyncOpen; [Supplemental, NoInterfaceObject] interface DatabaseSyncOpen { DatabaseSync openDatabaseSync(in DOMString name, in DOMString version, in DOMString displayName, in unsigned long estimatedSize, in optional DatabaseCallback creationCallback); }; WorkerUtils implements DatabaseSyncOpen; WorkerUtils implements DatabaseAsyncOpen; 37590 1 ian 2010-08-18 01:32:47 +0000 If the spec goes anywhere, this might be worth doing. Closing for now, though, since the spec seems dead. 64546 2 ian 2012-02-24 16:35:48 +0000 spec did not go anywhere
