Personally, I'm not sure, but my assessment of consensus is that the
current default is what people prefer.  That isn't consistent with
safe-by-default, but it's hard to make peerIdentity a default, so the
only viable choice I see is between site-accessible and noaccess.

I'm not sure how noaccess is useful in anything other than WebRTC
scenarios, so it would be difficult to justify making it the default.

The user can be informed of the constraints when granting permission
and can choose to deny or allow.  Cranking the restrictions up doesn't
make sense.
