We do need a performant key-value store implementation. This has been discussed before and various people have come up with proposals (myself included), but no one has had the time & focus to see it through to the end :/ I suspect part of the problem is that different use cases (IndexedDB re-implementation, prefs, simple storage, etc) have different requirements so no single solution satisfies everyone. I doubt I'll have time in Q1 but this is definitely something I want to do, or help out with, if some one else would like to step up.
