Details

(Keywords: perf, Whiteboard: [psm-backlog])

The Web Platform represents binary data as ArrayBuffers instead of low 8 bits of each 16 bits of a JS string. To allow chrome code to migrate to WebIDL APIs for UTF-16 to UTF-8 conversion, nsISecretDecoderRing should have method variants that represent binary data to encrypt or decrypted binary data as ArrayBuffers.
