Re: AudioBufferSourceNode.gain

Just a note on this topic: I was just visiting Turbulenz's website to play
one of their games, and they're completely broken against Web Audio
implementations that do not have AudioBufferSourceNode.gain. Someone should
evangelize with them before removing it from Blink/Gecko (as a result right
now you can't play their games in aurora/nightly Firefox builds).
