Interesting.  For a large class of events in WebRTC, I don't see this
as a realistic scenario.  I realize that synthesis of a "click" event
is potentially desirable.  Is the accepted practice to extend that
capability to all types of event?  Is that still true if the necessary
input cannot possibly be available to the application?
