In general it's recommended to pass a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function in the API, since that's the only way to provide additional options, and the fact that it also accepts a URL or TypedArray directly is now mostly for backwards compatibility reasons. However, the `getDocument`-function also accepts a direct `PDFDataRangeTransport`-instance which just seems unnecessary. *Please note:* The `PDFDataRangeTransport`-implementation was added specifically for the *built-in* Firefox PDF Viewer, however it's most likely not commonly used by any third-party (given that it requires manual PDF-data loading). Furthermore, the default-viewer always provides a *parameter object* when calling the `getDocument`-function and it's thus completely unaffected by these changes.
