The current spec text on that topic was added in response to
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=21155 . It seems that
the position of the spec is that the interaction with canvas, the Web
Audio API and the like depends on the Robustness & Compliance
provisions each CDM is subject to instead of depending on EME itself.
