Encrypted Media Extension bugs for discussion during 2012-06-12 teleconference

In the first HTML WG media teleconference, we will discuss as many of the
following Encrypted Media Extension bugs as we can get through. (See
http://tinyurl.com/7tfambo for a full list.) I've provided some brief notes
for each bug below the list. I'll also start threads for some of them.

^ We will defer discussion of these since they depend on other bugs in this
list.


* 16612: Read for background, but we will defer discussion until we decide
on 16613.
* 16613: This is the most important since so many other bugs depend on or
are affected by it. I've added some pros and cons as well as references to
many other bugs that may be at least partially addressed by objects. There
is a link to a formatted version of the bug in Comment
3<https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=16613#c3>
..
* 16548: Summary: Making the uncommon simplest case slightly more complex
simplifies implementation and increases consistency.
* 16549: Read for background, but we will defer discussion until we decide
on 16613 and 16548.
* 16552: Are there strong preferences for simple vs. complex events? Note
that we could consider making all events simple if we address 16613.
* 16738: How should heartbeats be implemented? keymessage followed by a
reply using addKey() or as separate key requests/sessions?
* 17199: It would be good to get more feedback in the area of key release,
especially regarding whether KeyReleaseManager should be a singleton and/or
a member of window.
