Bug ID: 23799
Summary: [Streams API] Feature req: in-band control signal
Product: WebAppsWG
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Streams API

Request from Aymeric to make it able to transfer signals that can be
distinguished from ordinary byte stream.
For example, we can have TextDecoder understand such a signal. When TextDecoder
sees a signal, it flushes decodable bytes preceding the signal in its buffer as
a DOMString while keeping non-decodable bytes in the buffer.
His use case is making hash calculator to emit partial hash when received such
a signal.
