Re: [heycam/webidl] Allow ReturnTypes to have extended attributes associated with them (#342)

I can't say we considered anything else. I think it'd be pretty confusing to depart from the typical extended-attributes-go-in-square-brackets-before-the-thing-they-modify pattern. But it would indeed help avoid the need to "flow through" certain extended attributes from e.g. non-required dictionary members to their types. I'd be open to changing it if we really think it's compelling.

I agree remembering to do the right thing is a bit hard, but I'm hopeful that with proper validation tooling spec authors and implementers will get it right.
