These classes, ImageData and CanvasPixelArray, are all about interface to JavaScript. They should stay in the higher HTML level.

It seems to me that it would be fine to have a class that held width, height, and a ByteArray of image data. But there’s no reason to reference count such a class. I think adding a new class in the platform layer for that would be OK.

But I don’t understand how we would decide when to use a ByteArray and when to use a Vector<char> instead.
