Re: [heycam/webidl] Add bigint type (#525)

Preface: this is all excellent discussion and @littledan's proactive approach to getting bigint integrated into the platform is awesome.

> Although it may be on the early side for such a change...

On that note: are there concrete examples of API that plan to consume/produce bigints, either via WebIDL or ES? (Indexed DB is unfortunately not a good example, since it requires custom integration)

I'm slightly nervous that since it's too early to have good examples of bigint usage we may be missing something. @littledan describes "the hypothesis of the BigInt proposal design" which makes sense to me wanting to keep mentally separate from the rest of the platform.... but what will eventual idiomatic use of bigints look like?
