A few reasons that I don't like this idea:
 - getUserMedia is not the right API for non-device sources of media
 - my limited UX knowledge extends to knowing that presenting
greyed-out options is considered a source of immense user frustration

If you care about fingerprinting for mandatory constraints, then it's
possible that the browser could just never fire the callbacks.  The
application would be left guessing whether they were ignored or if
their constraints were not met.  That's a crappy experience, though.
