I feel like we're just re-fighting the battle about mandatory constraints. As far as I can tell, there was general consensus to stay with the existing mandatory/optional constraint structure for gUM. I realize that there are a number of people who were in the rough on that discussion, and are no happier about it here, but unless there are some arguments that apply in particular to MediaRecorder and *not* to gUM, then there seems like a pretty strong consistency argument for using the same style throughout the specification. -Ekr
