Agreed.

I'm not sure.

A related question is if someone comes along and does this legwork 
(moving code from Chrome to the Native API), would Google consider 
folding these changes into official Chrome releases... The benefit being 
that this would simplify future WebRTC integration work for any future 
browsers who want to jump on board (but are not necessarily based on Blink).

So in theory, this benefits both the browsers and authors of native 
applications.
