I noted that the reference sections are quite empty, it's missing some
important normative references as well as many informative ones.

As an example, WebIDL is used to describe things like [1], there are two
issues here:
1/ WebIDL is not in the normative references
2/ It is not clear which level of WebIDL conformance is required by the
specification for implementation (See [2] for the different conformance
classes available).

On the informative front, the abstract talks about canvas and webgl, good
candidates for informative refs.

When the action mentioned in 1 is done, maybe we should add 2 as an informative reference.

Most of it was done during the ReSpec refactoring, this adds a paragraph for WebIDL.

Maybe we could consider adding a section that state dependencies on other specs?

Separate from the references?

I don't know, I saw some other spec doing that.
