> Yes, I think using `(ArrayBufferView or undefined)` is the way to go, or if that doesn't work for some reason then using `any` since this is just a return-value dictionary and so its IDL types don't really matter.

@domenic I had forgotten about this too, but the WebIDL spec currently disallows `undefined` in dictionary members (directly or in a union), so sadly I think the only valid option would be `any`.
