As I understand it, we have the createObjectURL() design because it's
"easier" and allows integration with systems that have a poor API
story, such as CSS. I'm not a fan and wish we had avoided it
altogether in favor of objects everywhere, but I lost that battle.

Given that MediaStream only works for a select set of end points, not
supporting createObjectURL() would be somewhat better if that's indeed
feasible.
