    <thetext>Though the StreamsAPI is referenced in Informative Reference, the functions under window.crypto.subtle are specified with only one-shot data inputs.

Use-cases: Data may not be available at once. Data may be too huge to keep in memory.

For encrypt()/decrypt() it would make sense to have a streaming readable output if the input is a readable stream.</thetext>

    <thetext>It would make sense for other APIs as well like digest/sign/verify.

I would love to be able to use a built-in browser API like this for validating large files client-side prior to upload to reduce failure rates of similar validations server-side.</thetext>

    <thetext>This has long been a desired goal, however I do not believe that there is any current effort to do this.  Propose the this be resolved as LATER.  This would allow for a version 2 spec to pick the issue up.</thetext>
