Created attachment 112473 [details] Frame from a screen recording of the bug. Whilst troubleshooting Mozilla bug 944918 - indexedDB broken - UnknownError - Error opening Database <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=944918> I discovered that the presence of .directory – in a 'db' directory, nested in the 'storage' directory of a Firefox profile, will cause IndexedDB to not work as required. Please: - can Dolphin, or some other part of KDE, be enhanced to prevent creation of .directory files wherever a 'db' directory contains an .sqlite file?
Screen recordings: <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=944918#c33> comments 33 and 34.
It seems that the scope is broader than the 'db' directory alone; please see <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=944918#c36>.
That is an oddly specific request. The file is hidden (dot file) so it ought to be ignored...

Closing as request, since there is very little we can do from the dolphin side.
