Description Ryan Sleevi 2013-07-03 23:40:22 UTC 
This was raised by Israel Hilerio on http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webcrypto/2013Apr/0145.html

"""
In addition, to avoid the potential casting of ArrayBuffer into ArrayBufferView we believe it would be useful to create a new type called AlgorithmInputData:
-->typedef (ArrayBuffer or ArrayBufferView) AlgorithmInputData;

This would allow the various input dictionaries to be able to support input variables with either ArrayBufferView or ArrayBuffer.
