Hello group,
For WebGL, we need getContext to possibly fail whereas the browser
supports contextId "webgl".
Indeed it is possible the browser fails creating a new 3D context for
many different reasons at run-time, which means a given contextId
might not be available at any given time.
This is in

Makes sense.
Applications could detect all possible context creation failure

Nice!

In the context of typed arrays, a value depends of the type of the
ArrayBufferView. ArrayBufferView are interc

I think the API would be more flexible and more future-proof defined as :
interface Crypto {
void getRandom
