... because WebIDL doesn't allow that syntax.
Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2013-04-11 22:29:20 UTC 
heycam, can we allow trailing commas on enums? It would make maintenance easier.

Hi Hixie, I've open a bug to allow trailing commas in all lists in Web IDL:
Bug 22156 - Allow trailing commas in Web IDL lists
Comment 4 Nils Barth 2013-05-24 06:51:13 UTC 
For reference, an earlier bug requesting trailing commas in enum lists is:
Bug 17508 - Let enum lists end with a comma
Comment 5 Ms2ger 2013-05-24 07:50:01 UTC 
Nils, please watch out with changing components.

Oops, sorry about that!
(Didn't notice I was changing anything; I'll be careful in future.)

I've allowed this now in bug 17508.  I'll interpret this bug as requesting such on Web IDL and marked it a dupe.
