[webkit-dev] Support FTS3 in WebSQLDatabases

Hi webkit-dev,

I'd like to start a discussion about adding FTS3 support to WebSQLDatabases
in WebKit. FTS3 has been a standard SQLite extension for quite some time and
allows web developers to use full text search. The goal is to make it easier
for web developers who used Gears for their apps to migrate those apps to
HTML5 WebSQLDatabases.

The amount of work to make this change should be minimal: a trivial WebKit
change to allow FTS3 functions in SQL statements (I can take care of this),
and rebuilding WebKit's SQLite library with FTS3 support on.

Thanks,
Dumi
