Should we keep track of the last date an IDL was processed as a baseline?

[orta]

For a PR like #1031 - I'm not certain if this was done via the IDL generator, or hand added in the JSON (as that probably seems like the easiest way as a first time contributor)

If we had a JSON file which had the dates the last time a IDL was processed (which gets updated when someone runs the scripts) then we can know in a PR that it isn't a temporary change

The IDL generator never touches browser.webidl.preprocessed.json and it should not be modified by anything. That's why https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript-DOM-lib-generator/commits/master/inputfiles/browser.webidl.preprocessed.json is very short (and it means #662 was wrong).

Closing this as there is no browser.webidl.preprocessed.json anymore nor local IDL files
