Re: [mediacapture-main] defer to HTML5.1 for direct assignment

Dom,
   I looked at the PR, and it looks to me like some of the details 
about 
the relationship between the MediaStream and the corresponding HTML 
elements are missing.For example, the removed text includes statements
 
like:

"For each MediaStreamTrack in the MediaStream , including those that 
are 
added after the User Agent enters the media element load algorithm, 
the 
User Agent MUST create a corresponding AudioTrack or VideoTrack as 
defined in [HTML5]. Since the order in the MediaStream 's track set is
 
undefined, no requirements are put how the AudioTrackList and 
VideoTrackList are ordered.

The properties of the AudioTrack and VideoTrack objects MUST be 
initialized as follows. Let

AudioTrack.id and VideoTrack.id have the value of the corresponding 
MediaStreamTrack.id attribute
AudioTrack.kind and VideoTrack.kind be "main"
AudioTrack.label and VideoTrack.label have the value of the 
corresponding MediaStreamTrack.label attribute
AudioTrack.language and VideoTrack.language be the empty string"

I don't find anything like that in the HTML text.Perhaps the authors 
have decided that these details fall out from more general statements 
elsewhere in the spec, or they want to leave them up to the 
implementation.It's fine with me if that's the result of a conscious 
decision, but as it stands the text does not specify things to the 
level 
of detail that the Media Capture group thought was necessary.
