> Regarding this issue, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-audio/2013AprJun/0432.html and the surrounding thread. Web Audio's design encourages a "fire and forget" approach of constantly creating new nodes and never explicitly removing them, which is incompatible with APIs that expose graph structure. If the TAG insists on having such APIs, then we'll have to redesign Web Audio significantly (probably making it harder to use), which I don't think anyone in this group really wants.

Introspection (more than serialisation) has been discussed many times over the life of the WG. 

Back in August 2012, the group resolved not to work on it in the near future, see Issue #164:
