Modern IDB: After closing a Netflix video, trying to watch it again fails

1 - Save off the exact URL for a specific Netflix video as a bookmark.
2 - Be watching that video.
3 - Close that Safari window, but do *not* quit Safari. This kills the WebProcess that was playing the video
4 - In a different window, open that bookmark to try to resume watching the video

In normal cases, the IDB client side cleans up all transactions/requests/etc when the window closes or page navigates.
But if the WebProcess is killed, then that client side cleanup doesn't happen.

Instead, we need to rely on server-side cleanup in response to the connection closing.

And the server doesn't abort in-progress transactions.

So when you visit a new netflix page, there's an in-progress transaction, so the new connection's transaction can never start.
