The next paragraph in the spec says

When a||MediaStream| 
<http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#idl-def-MediaStream>|goes 
from being active to inactive, the user agent/must/queue a task that 
sets the object's|active 
<http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#dom-mediastream-active>|attribute 
to|false|and fire a simple event named|inactive 
<http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#event-mediastream-inactive>|at 
the object. When a||MediaStream| 
<http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#idl-def-MediaStream>|goes 
from being inactive to active, the user agent/must/queue a task that 
sets the object's|active 
<http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/getusermedia.html#dom-mediastream-active>|attribute

the object.

This is somewhat longer than the text proposed, but seems to say the
