Any progress on this Stage 1 proposal?
At least, IMHO, DateView#{get, set}Float16
should go ahead.

Maybe make Float16Array
optional for WebGPU just like SharedArrayBuffer
?

I've been trying to get some traction for the feature with implementors but it's being hard to get everyone positive about this being a native implementation rather than a non-native custom API.
Float16Array is required in Canvas Floating Point Color Values.
The ColorWeb CG therefore suggests:
Moving ahead with
ColorWeb-CG/canvas_float.md at main · w3c/ColorWeb-CG · GitHub in its current form, with unorm8 and float32 as options for readback.In parallel, working on adding Float16Array to ECMAScript, and prototyping it in browsers.
Specifying a "float16" enum in ImageDataColorType once implementation experience has been achieved with Float16Array. Applications can feature-detect its support in browsers by catching exceptions raised by getImageData or createImageData.
