Hi all, WebKit have resolved their standard position with "support", so I've gone ahead and merged https://github.com/WICG/webcrypto-modern-algos/pull/67 (adding Hybrid KEMs) into the Modern Algorithms in Web Crypto draft.
Once there is widespread support, algorithms can in turn be merged from the WICG draft into the Web Crypto spec "proper".
