At that point it would be nice to start sending media with no clipping. That allows all the ICE setup time to disappear from the media clipping latency problem.

I don't think it is constrained. A JS app can bring up the data channel and never alert or get any consent from the end user if there is no camera or microphone involved. People are thinking of using this to do P2PLive  style video distribution among other things. If you go back to my high /  mid / low path slides from a way back, you can see I want to bring up a data channel than use that data channel to pass back and forth any updated offer / answers so that they are direct and don't add extra load to the web server. All of this could happen before any alerting even started.
