If we are breaking syntax, then it seems more compelling to make
“DOMString” be “string”.
Maybe we could drop the “in” keyword. Seems better to stick with
plain “in” arguments, for compatibility across language bindings,
than to also allow “out” and “inout” ones.
I'd vote for not changing these, because we already have a lot of
IDL out
there and it would be a pain to fix it all.
Can we make "in" optional so that new interfaces can be defined
without using "in"? It seems very easy to forget to specify "in" for
each parameter in Web IDL.
I like that option, the ability to not use "in" would be really nice
to have.
