Is IndexedDB ready for use by internal Gecko consumers, including add-ons?
Yes.
Can you use it from the main thread (for cases where a dedicated worker is
too heavy weight)?
You can only use it from the main thread right now. Worker support is
coming (Bug 798875).
What are current risks associated with this "experimental technology?"
It's not experimental.
Aside from those concerns, I reckon IndexedDB could fill the gap I
described. I want to learn more.
Always happy to answer questions.

The current level of flakiness in the IndexedDB test suite (especially
on OSX) makes me concerned about what to expect if it starts getting
heavier use across the various platforms.
