Thanks for putting this together!  

Just a quick note, there should be a distinction between "access to camera stream" and "high quality access to camera stream". The current streams we have access to are great for "RTC", but we currently don't have access to high (full?) quality streams to build things like realtime viewfinders in photography apps or AR apps (not to mention APIs for actually controlling focus, exposure, etc. of cameras). The WebRTC WG needs to address this at some point (can see why it hasn't been addressed in the current API - but it's a bit sad it hasn't been yet), and the web is currently missing out on this [very popular] class of application.
