New approach to HTML Media Capture

Dear HTML Working Group,

Back in December, Robin Berjon asked for feedback on the proposed way
forward for HTML Media Capture, a proposed mechanism to prompt the user
to record media from attached cameras and microphones instead of loading
from the file system:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Dec/0064.html

We've published last week an update to the document that, instead of
using a "capture" parameter as part of the accept attribute value
specifies a new "capture" attribute for <input type="file">:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html-media-capture-20110414/

The Device APIs & Policy Working Group would very much like to get
feedback on that new approach, and it sounds sensible, some feedback on
how to get this specification to move forward given its tight relation
to HTML5.

Thanks,

Dominique Hazael-Massieux
