I do not think redefining session description is the best approach. Having
access to direct API methods that control send codecs, send media types,
resolution, etc  is easier to understand and to program. I think even
simply exposing the API from Voice and Video engines in current WebRTC
implementation would be a more usable API then the current offer/answer SDP
based one.
