Yup, this works - https://github.com/erbbysam/webRTCCopy/blob/master/client/js... (not the cleanest code)

You can then use idb.filesystem.js to add api support for firefox etc. Search the file above for "is_chrome" for a few idb.filesystem.js-specific quirks.

Looking at that page, it looks like firefox will ship with support in version 50?

Yup it's possible. It doesn't appear to be here though, especially if the files have any sort of lifespan not dependant on the users browser staying open. Anyhow, I built something similar over at rtccopy.com which does use webrtc

No, I currently just manually keep the site in sync with the repository. Not exactly the most professional system but it got the job done. I'm going to look into that(not sure exactly how it works, but I do need to keep a node.js server running as well for webrtc negotiation) , as well as potentially just installing git on the server and have it sync up to the repository.

Chrome Canary is the only Chrome version that has working SCTP (reliable) datachannel support at the moment. It's broken(undetectable also) in every version before that (you can try, the website won't stop any version, just display warnings).

I did have unreliable datachannel support initially, but as both Firefox & Chrome now support reliable, I see no reason to keep that overhead/extra code around. Hopefully working reliable datachannels in Chrome will reach the primary version soon!

It looks like this is leaking the room name to Google Analytics. After thinking about this more, I'm going to go ahead and remove that. I should be able to monitor the server itself to make sure it isn't getting overloaded.
