Re: [rtcweb] Proposed text for local recording use case

This is a good start. But I'd like to dig a little deeper into the 
intent here.

The below says the *user* wishes to record, and the *browser* must be 
able to do it. But is that the only case of interest?

ISTM that in a number of cases it will be the web application that wants 
the recording, even if there is an obligation to inform the user that it 
is happening. And the behavior of the application may be changed 
substantially if the recording cannot be made.

(Consider a web app provided by a brokerage to its clients.)

OTOH, maybe some of these cases are out of scope because the 
user+browser can't be sufficiently trusted, so that its necessary to do 
the recording from some secure server.

	Thanks,
	Paul

For a given medium, the two directions of transmission can be stored in the same file (mixed) or in separate files. The web application also stores metadata that gives context to the stored media.
