Re: [mediacapture-main] Allow device capabilities to be discoverable via enumerateDevices

Thanks. A couple of quick responses:

The language of "hypothetical MediaStreamTrack matching the output 
device characteristics" was included because my understanding is that 
MediaStreamTracks are not creatable for output devices: they are 
defined in terms of a source only. Perhaps there is a better way to 
phrase this.

The device approval policy was intended to track the same permission 
policy for the rest of enumerateDevices() filterable information, 
which currently states that once the user has granted access to *any* 
device, this filterable information is obtainable for *all* devices.

I continue to think that some way of requesting permission from the 
user to obtain info on available devices would clarify this area, and 
someone proposed that on the list not long ago.
