+Note: Async iterables can not be constructed from IDL. If returned from an operation, or used as the
+type of a dictionary member, the async iterable will have originated from the host environment and
+have been turned into an IDL type via a language binding. Instead of returning an async iterable
+from an IDL operation, the operation may want to return an [=interface=] that has an
+[=asynchronously iterable declaration=].
+
+Async iterables must not be used as the type of an [=attribute=] or [=constant=].
+
+There is no way to represent an async iterable value in IDL.
