Re: [Public WebGL] Bug in context-lost.html conformance test: getContextAttributes should not return null

[Gregg Tavares (社用) <gman@google.com>]

Maybe it's a semantic issue but the thing you get back from canvas.getContext is a handle to context, not a context itself. When the context is lost, that handle effectively points to no context. You can call canvas.getContext and have it return a handle (a WebGLRenderingContext) that is lost

This is not currently possible. lost-context state is a property of a
WebGL context, so you can't get there without having earlier created
that context.
