https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=27755

            Bug ID: 27755
           Summary: Using the Subtle Crypto Interface with Streams
           Product: Web Cryptography
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Cryptography API Document
          Assignee: sleevi@google.com
          Reporter: astro@spaceboyz.net
                CC: public-webcrypto@w3.org

Though the StreamsAPI is referenced in Informative Reference, the functions
under window.crypto.subtle are specified with only one-shot data inputs.

Use-cases: Data may not be available at once. Data may be too huge to keep in
memory.

For encrypt()/decrypt() it would make sense to have a streaming readable output
if the input is a readable stream.
