Re: [mediacapture-main] Only Firefox turns off device on disabled track. Stronger language needed? (#642)

Quoting my favorite blog ;)

> Firefox 60’s indicator additionally turns gray on mute. Importantly, it does not go away, because the website still has permission to access your device(s), and can resume recording you at its discretion, at which point the indicator would begin to blink red again. When the indicator goes away completely, it cannot come back, and the website can no longer record you without asking for permission anew. Preserving this user guarantee was key.

OK I love it, this is good and motivates enabled as an API that deserves to exist separately from other "hacks".
