> It's not true when a browser from one vendor running an application from a scone vendor needs to talk to video conferencing system from a third vendor.

In the WWW, the servide provider provides both the server side (in
this case the Web and the video conference server) and the client side
(the JS). Your concern is good for a SIP phone but not for a browser
nor for a JS custom application controlled and designed by the
provider.
