Comment (by mikeperry):

 I am not sure if enabling indexedDB is the right move now. I am thinking
 it might be better to remove the pref checks in
 IDBFactory::CreateForWindow() and
 IDBFactory::CreateForMainThreadJSInternal(), so that the behavior for
 private browsing mode and the pref is identical (due to the checks in
 FactoryOp::CheckPermission()).

 This should still fix twitter and ln5's bank, and is probably a better
 option than trying to write a bunch of code to clear indexedDB state at
 this point.
