Re: [web-audio-api] Mandate a useful accepted sampling rate ranges for buffers created through AudioContext.createBuffer (#119)

"At least" should not be confused with "limited to". These are totally different things.

Current spec says "must", not "should":

"An implementation must support sample-rates in at least the range 22050 to 96000."
(https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/audio/raw-file/tip/webaudio/specification.html#dfn-sampleRate_2)

That does require that the range of sample rates must be supported, but does not prevent implementations from supporting more wide range if they want / need / are able to.

There is no sense to _limit_ sample-rate range unless there are corresponding technical limitations in a specific implementation. This is completely out of the spec scope.
