It's unfortunate that using web feature detection was ever used to determine anything about the native environment.
This was never an appropriate strategy.

Adding UIWebView support for IndexedDB in iOS10 was a feature-level effort that was requested by *many* parties, and there's been much rejoicing that we've added it.
I don't think removing it is in the cards.</pre>
