Specification: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/
Section: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/complete.html#compositing

Comment:
The ability to lock individual channels (i.e. prevent them from being updated
by drawing functions) would allow for some interesting composition tricks,
such as drawing directly to the alpha channel.
