Given the popularity of SASS, this seems like a poor choice for a name... I thought this JS library came from the same project.

Agreed about the poor name - very unfortunate

I remember having to write some long code for localStorage that changes binary to 32 bit and then back to binary. Nice!

IndexedDB is now supported by every browser but Safari (for that you can use a polyfill). Trying to work around localStorage limitations isn't really necessary any more.

but then you have to have it be asynchronous to use indexedDB (which might be difficult or annoying with certain implementations)

While I've never actually run out of localstorage space, I can see it being an issue for some webgl applications. Cool stuff!
