   It should already be possible:

   const bucket = await navigator.storageBuckets.open('my-bucket');
   const db = new Dexie('my-db', { indexedDB: bucket.indexedDB });

   However, it could probably also be worth it to support it more user-friendly in Dexie. For example:

   const db = new Dexie('my-db', {
     bucket: 'my-bucket',
     persisted: true // passed to storageBuckets.open()
   });

   Question would be how to behave on browsers without the storagebuckets api? Probably to ignore the bucket and persisted arguments, or maybe default persisted to try StorageManager.persist(). But then what happens when the same user upgrades their browser and it gets this API? Probably user will suddenly get an empty DB now that the bucket is created.

   Comments?
