I don't see anything wrong in drag'n'drop and attributes without values... but IndexedDB and DRM are indeed stuff I see as "there is something badly wrong"

You can't even do result-set limiting with IDB (see e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19714782/indexeddb-how-to...).

As soon as you want to do more processing on your data than just looking it up from the storage, you have to do it in client-side code. That just plain sucks.
