That's item [2], please make sure that item [1] is also covered.

With careful reading, one can discern that the Web RTC RTP usage draft
(draft-ietf-rtcweb-rtp-usage) implies that all Web RTC usage is interactive,
but some subtlety is involved.  IMHO, relying on implementers to grasp
that sort of "do what I mean" rationale is problematic.

Cullen - would you be amenable to drafting a blunt RFC Editor note
for the RTP usage draft to state that all current Web RTC RTP usage is
for interactive media, and non-interactive Web RTC media flows currently
use HTTP (and would that be HTTP over the Web RTC data channel or
something else)?

Obviously, the rtcweb WG will have to sign off on that RFC Editor note,
but this looks like a relatively short path to addressing the problem.

Thanks, --David (as draft shepherd)
