Re: [heycam/webidl] Considering factoring WebIDL to allow use from the ECMAScript specification (#486)

I don't think that's necessarily going to be the case. Remember that the goal of this layering is twofold: 1) help explain how the different specs build on each other, and thus help inform decisions as to where to put new stuff, and 2) manage sensibilities.

While I do thing splitting up WebIDL into an ES specific is necessary for (2), I don't think anyone will care about the underlying infra stuff—it's just less visible, and also: not syntax (again irrational arguments, but…).
