From WebIDL paragraph 4.2.20 Dictionary types:
2. If V is a native Date object or a native RegExp object, then throw a TypeError.
We don't have this check.
I don't know what the rationale behind this requirement was.

ap@webkit.org - Is something needed here? If I am understanding right, "RegEx" special casing were removed later on?

The spec at the time of filing the bug is at https://github.com/whatwg/webidl/blob/ff92fdfb5c44c6a18347c8c9f2df3e87c74efabc/Overview.html
The latest spec doesn't contain "RegEx" or "Date" at all, so I suppose that there is nothing to do here. But I haven't been following any of this.
