Description Jeffrey Yasskin 2015-06-21 14:38:55 UTC 
The Web Bluetooth spec has some union types containing unsigned longs that we may want to apply [EnforceRange] to: https://webbluetoothcg.github.io/web-bluetooth/#idl-def-bluetoothserviceuuid.

However, the [EnforceRange] documentation does not include union types in the set of things it can apply to: https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#EnforceRange.

It would be most convenient for Web Bluetooth if we could put [EnforceRange] directly into the union types and typedefs where it's needed, but we could explicitly put it on the operations that take values of these types.
