Re: [whatwg] proposal: Add support for masking to canvas

I want to get it right! :-)
After looking at the CG API, maybe imageSmoothing could be a part of the
mask too.

Third try:

enum CanvasMaskType { luminosity, alpha};
dictionary MaskOptions {

CanvasImageSource image;
unrestricted double sx;
unrestricted double sy;
unrestricted double sw;
unrestricted double sh;
unrestricted double dx;
unrestricted double dy;
unrestricted double dw;
unrestricted double dh;
CanvasMaskType maskType = "luminosity";
boolean invert = false;
boolean clipToMask = true;
boolean imageSmoothingEnabled = true;

}

void maskImage(MaskOptions options);
void resetMask();

If not specified, the dw and dh arguments must default to the values of sw
and sh, interpreted such that one CSS pixel in the image is treated as one
unit in thescratch bitmap's coordinate space. If the sx, sy, sw, and sh
arguments are omitted, they must default to 0, 0, the image's intrinsic
width in image pixels, and the image's intrinsic height in image pixels,
respectively.

I would specify the same language as for drawImage:

Thanks for the help!
