How would you create an index on an existing object store in IndexedDB

it with even one IndexedDB implementation out there then kudos and hats off to 
you. :)

You keep bringing this point up, but only a naive implementation of IndexedDB would bring a device to it's knees (or a poorly implemented thread scheduler, which I don't expect the iPad to have). The API is asynchronous, which means it doesn't need to (nor should it) happen on any thread that the UI is being drawn on.

You still have a point about it possibly taking longer, but even then, that will be implementation dependent.
