You suggested using

   callback Function = any (any... arguments);

in https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14916 I was wondering if  
that includes [TreatNonCallableAsNull] and if not, how that needs to be  
included. That was part of the reason why it would be nice if Web IDL had  
the definition instead, so we could remove [TreatNonCallableAsNull] and  
just have 'function'. (I believe we discussed this already but I cannot  
find it in the archives. Sorry!)
