Comment (by acat):
>In-memory IndexedDB is not ready. In-PBM too. Of course,
extensions.webextensions.ExtensionStorageIDB.enabled for now.
I don't think in-memory indexeddb will be used in webextensions, it will
always persist.
>Sounds like we should go with the other option for now. What are the
drawbacks for that one?
AFAIK the old implementation is synchronous and writes the whole key-value
store to disk every time there is some change. But for reasonable usage of
the storage (which noscript and https everywhere probably has) this should
not be a problem.
There is some migration code that is ran when
`extensions.webextensions.ExtensionStorageIDB.enabled` which might be
removed in the future, but I think that should not be an issue at least
until next ESR.
