I think this is great!

I'm a bit confused by this though:

This indicates that the src DOM attribute reflects a content attribute
named src, but that the result is a completed URL, not the raw
attribute value:

  attribute [ReflectURL] DOMString src;

Why a special case for absolute URL conversions?
Should we have a more generic [ReflectFitler=completeURL] syntax?
Do we have enough url-values where this special attribute makes sense
or should src() just be a small wrapper around getAttribute("src")
which knows how to make it absolute?

URL attributes resolving against the document base is a fairly common case of modified reflected attributes, yes. Many elements have href or src attributes that behave this way. I am not sure if there are other common cases that fix up the value on reading relative to the actual content attribute value.
