[Bug 26178] ECMAScript standard library

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26178

--- Comment #1 from Ryan Sleevi <sleevi@google.com> ---
I don't feel confident that this WG is able to accommodate this request, in
charter or scope.

Consider, for example, the notoriousness that has been the algorithm selection
discussion. If you rule out the concerns of UAs - or if you rule, in scope, the
concerns of server-side deployments such as node.js - you end up with a
significantly different set of criteria and interoperability concerns, ones
which no doubt will cause significant (continued) hurdles towards adoption.
Considering the threatened formal objections over algorithm selection as case
in point of this.

I'm not sure what you mean by "place it somewhere where it can be uplifted into
ECMAScript proper". Are you referring to the SubtleCrypto interface being
attached to window/worker global scope? If so, is the suggestion to make it
"Yet Another Global"?
