Just so I understand, are you talking about

   - something that needs to happen in RTCWeb, or
   - something that needs to happen in network operations, or
   - something that needs to happen in the Jitsi implementation itself?

If the answer is two or more of these, that's also good to know.

Best,

Spencer
