- : The {{domxref("GPUBindGroup")}} to use for subsequent render commands.

What specific section or headline is this issue about?

The bindGroup argument of GPUBindingCommandsMixin.setBindGroup, which applies to GPU{ComputePass,RenderPass,RenderBundle}Encoders.

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

It's incomplete not to mention the case where the bindGroup argument for setBindGroup overloads can be null, for the purpose of unsetting a bind group.

What did you expect to see?

I expect to see a note that null can be specified. Perhaps even an example?

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

This was changed with the WebGPU spec. upstream PR gpuweb#3938.

Do you have anything more you want to share?

I'm a member of Firefox's WebGPU team, hello! 👋🏻 Pleasure to meet you. 🙂

I expect most casual users of WebGPU to not need this functionality, but I'm not sure about production users.
