Re: [heycam/webidl] Allow extended attributes to apply to types (#286)

> I'm not sure what you mean. I mean, we do want to keep allowing extended attributes on attributes in general. And allow them on the type of the attribute. That's not a problem because the two locations (start of attribute, start of attribute type) are not adjacent, so the grammar is unambiguous. The only place where they are adjacent are non-required dictionary members and non-optional operation arguments...

Ah oops, I was indeed confusing two issues.

So the question is whether we have a use case for specifying extended attributes on operation arguments and dictionary members, instead of specifying them on their types. The spec does not, but Gecko does, and Gecko's reasons seem reasonably widely applicable. So I guess we should figure out how that works...
