please see: <https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/pull/586#pullrequestreview-65432034> This seems basically OK, tho there are a few detail-level things we need to fixup. Also, here's the applicable WebIDL section: https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#idl-buffer-source-types Note the admonition in orange that begins: "Extreme care must be taken when writing specification text that gets a reference to the bytes held by a buffer source, as the underyling data can easily be changed by the script author or other APIs at unpredictable times. ..." I am betting that to be really correct, we need to make copies of the buffersource types that we manipulate in the algorithms, using the [get a copy of the bytes held by the buffer source](https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#dfn-get-buffer-source-copy) language in the paragraph above the orange admonition. but this detail-level issue existed before this PR was created.
