My understanding (and I'm not tracking everything carefully) is that
this is a bad situation.  I've been accumulating desiderata, and one
that has been on the list for a long time is:

   DES F11  It must be possible to add and remove one way video flows
      within the bundle without requiring an additional offer/answer
      cycle.

Do people think that this is not important?
