In the webrtc/rtcweb use-case and reqs document (http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtcweb-use-cases-and-requirements/?include_text=1, section 7.2) it is said that the browser is "expected" to provide mechanisms for informing the user of that e.g. camera/microphone is in use (hot), and for the user to revise (e.g. revoke) the permissions to use them. The general thinking when writing this was that icons in the browser chrome could be used for this (inform the user of use, and allow revoking by clicking). Note that the current definition of MediaStreamTracks, where mute overrides enable/disable (the app can only to the later), also makes it possible to support muting via e.g. the browser chrome (click on something) in a way that the app can not override. Then there is the additional complexity of handling this when the browser is in full screen mode... Stefan
