Well beyond anything. The US can't violate any countries diplomatic immunity otherwise giving US officials diplomatic immunity essentially becomes optional to every other country.
I'm quite certain the US wants to keep its diplomatic immunity when dealing with North Korea, Iran, etc. I'm pretty sure they don't want any country having the option to arrest every diplomat and visiting state official at will.
It's a very dangerous precedent to set. I'm sure China has a list of diplomats, or staff under diplomatic immunity that they would be willing to put on trial for espionage.
