Sure - we have a proposed compromise solution:
Instead of overloading media_elem.src to allow direct assignment from a
stream, we're creating a new property: media_elem.srcObject.
Usage:
media_elem.srcObject = stream;
If both .src and .srcObject are set, .srcObject take precedence.
Mozilla has currently changed our implementation (in mozilla-central)
from .src = stream to .mozSrcObject = stream (prefixed until the new
property is speced). We are also implementing
URL.createObjectURL(stream), though we discourage it's usage due to
object lifetime management issues.
If I've mis-summarized, roc will correct me. :-)
