I looked into whether this is feasible, and unfortunately I'm not optimistic. For one, the current TypedObjects proposal has __proto__ read-only, which we could certainly not do for TypedArray classes. But ok, they might be exceptional in that regard, I guess. Even if you strip away everything else, simply the change in prototype chains might not be web-compatible, though. Still, it's certainly something that should be tried if and when the proposal gets un-stalled.
