Description Rick Eyre 2013-06-13 20:14:52 UTC 
It would make more sense for these to be enums as they can take only a limited set of values.
Comment 1 Silvia Pfeiffer 2013-06-13 23:21:01 UTC 
agreed
Comment 2 Simon Pieters 2013-06-15 05:14:46 UTC 
Agreed. The only normative change would be that TypeError is thrown (by WebIDL) instead of SyntaxError.
Comment 3 Philip Jägenstedt 2014-01-28 18:24:44 UTC 
These have already been enums for a while now.

I'm getting rid of the SyntaxError bits in https://github.com/w3c/webvtt/pull/28
