Personally I would support that, but beware the difference from what's 
proposed: What you suggest would not require Safari or IE to implement 
navigator.getUserMedia, which would break anyone who expected:

navigator.getUserMedia = navigator.getUserMedia || 
navigator.webkitGetUserMedia || navigator.mozGetUserMedia;

to work on Safari or IE.

(though Safari or IE would of course be free to implement, say, 
navigator.webkitGetUserMedia for legacy compatibility if they so desired)
