Description

When i run bitshares-ui in the TOR-browser(based on Firefox 60.4.0esr) or in private mode in Firefox 64.0, it scans available nodes and stops after that with error "DOMException: A mutation operation was attempted on a database that did not allow mutations."
Perhaps it happens because of inaccessibility of the indexedDB (Context: IndexedDB doesn't work in private browsing mode https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781982)

Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. First reproduce the failure in Firefox private mode or the TOR browser and trace the IndexedDB initialization and node-scanning flow; done means the application handles unavailable IndexedDB without stopping after scanning nodes, with regression coverage for the affected mode.
