Was hoping to see Web SQL make its way back into Firefox.
Yes, it's been deprecated for years, but that hasn't stopped the browser makers with majority of market share (Google > Chrome, Apple > Safari) from continuing to ship it along with the strictly worse alternative (IndexedDb).
Now that pretty much every language compiles to Javascript it's a shame to lose SQL functionality on the client. Shared model, shared validation, shared SQL layer, etc. -- it could all be a unified whole, but no, now one has to wait for sqlite-lite to be built on top of IndexedDb; that or throw everything out and go NoSQL on client and server.
