[MMUSIC] Query: Usage of enrypted vs unencrypted RTP extensions

[Harald Alvestrand <[e-mail]>]

I recently encountered an interesting piece of code with regard to 
encrypted RTP header extensions.

It seemed to say that "if you enable encryption, every header extension 
will be offered in an encrypted and unencrypted variant, and the 
answerer can choose which ones to use".

1) does anyone want that?

2) does anyone depend on that?

It would seem more logical that the initiator of a call would have a 
strong opinion on whether encryption should be on or off, and only the 
version preferred should be offered.

This also saves some numbers, in case one wants to use 1-byte header 
extension numbering.

The context it came up in may end up in designing an API for controlling 
header extension encryption in WebRTC - so it's important to cover the 
use cases that are, in fact, in use.

Inquiring minds want to know....
