            Bug ID: 27939
           Summary: Omissions from the VTTCue interface in the API
           Product: TextTracks CG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
               URL: http://dev.w3.org/html5/webvtt/
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebVTT
          Assignee: dave.null@w3.org

It seems to me that attributes for "id", "startTime", and "endTime" should be
added to the VTTCue interface in section 7.1 of the January 2015 draft.  The
last two are parameters in the constructor. The identifier "id" is described
elsewhere in the document and the attribute "id" is already allowed by several
browsers.  "id" could also be added as an optional parameter in the
constructor.

As a convenience to programmers using the VTTCue interface in applications, it
would be useful to have way (possibly a function) for adding a WebVTT cue
settings list to the cue as a single string using the same format that one
would use in the WebVTT file on the start and end times lines.  This string
could also possibly be added as an optional parameter for the constructor.
