We were wondering if any spec is using the type "unrestricted double" (and in particular, if Canvas depends on it)? More precisely, the 'float' and 'double' types in WebIDL have been redefined to throw on non-finite floats. There are now 'unrestricted float' and 'unrestricted double' types for cases where non-finite floats should be passed through to the underlying method. Which means that every single case where canvas is supposed to do "nothing" on non-finite floats or doubles need to be using the unrestricted versions. Clearly 'unrestricted float' is needed. The question is whether 'unrestricted double' is needed. -Boris
