This could be interpreted to mean the first a=mid value in the SDP.
I'm sure you mean "the first mid value in the a=group:bundle" line.
Or perhaps "the first mid value in the bundle group" - assuming there is 
a definition that "bundle group" means an a=group:bundle line.

This can be "future proofed" by saying that the first mid value in the 
bundle group in the answer that references an m-line with non-zero port 
value. I realize this adds nothing unless 5888 is revised to permit 
m-lines with zero port in a bundle group. But at least it will be ready 
for that, and harms nothing.
