jan-ivar has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-record: == Should stop(), pause(), resume() change state synchronously? == With the exception of [start()](https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-record/MediaRecorder.html#dom-mediarecorder-start), which sets `state` to `"recording"` synchronously, all the other state-changing methods, stop(), pause(), resume(), set `state` asynchronously, in the queued task that fires the corresponding event. Do we have a good reason for this? I'm asking because both Chrome and Firefox appear to set `state` synchronously, and fire the event asynchronously. Try it [here](https://jsfiddle.net/jib1/tmufhavj/). We're [adding `pause` and `resume` events to Firefox](https://bugzil.la/1363915), and aren't sure what to do. Full disclosure: I fixed the start() method in https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-record/pull/56. The spec seemed confused about this before then, throwing exceptions in queued tasks. cc @foolip, @SingingTree Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-record/issues/123 using your GitHub account
