Changing subject as I'm replying to a subtopic, and because I was 
misunderstanding what Emil was arguing in favour of.....

when I wrote that text, I didn't intend it to cover only one SSRC per 
stream.
What I intended to say was that when, in an RTP session, a browser gets 
several SSRCs that were not mentioned in signalling, it will send 
several onaddstream signals to the application, each indicating a new 
stream being added, which has exactly one track. If the language doesn't 
say that, I need to change it.

(One reason why I changed this from the version with just a single 
stream with one track per unknown SSRC was that there's no way to know 
the desired synchronization properties of the stream before one sees the 
CNAME of the stream - which may be at an arbitrary time after the first 
packet.)
