Description Joshua Bell 2012-04-12 15:51:42 UTC 
Per discussion on the list, specifying both a key generator for an object store (via autoIncrement: true) and a key path which is an Array (via keyPath: [...]) would lead to inconsistent keys. This should not be supported.

This spec change should cover it:

OLD: If the optionalParameters parameter is specified, and autoIncrement is set to true, and the keyPath parameter is specified to the empty string, or specified to an Array and one of the items is an empty string, this function must throw a InvalidAccessError exception.

NEW: If the optionalParameters parameter is specified, and autoIncrement is set to true, and the keyPath parameter is specified to the empty string, or specified to an Array, this function must throw a InvalidAccessError exception.
