I am pretty sure that this is clear for them as the files can not be 
decoded correctly, just that what Google uses is more VP8/VP9/AV1/Opus, 
and these coding formats don't need CodecPrivate.
And from 
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=601636#c2, it 
looks like they don't wait for a change in the spec.
Anyway, better to be clear, I'll send a PR about that.
