CfC: Should WebCodecs be exposed in Window environments?

Dear all,
This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) on the question: Should WebCodecs be exposed in Window environments?

For context, please see the WebCodecs specification at https://wicg.github.io/web-codecs/ and the discussion on this question at https://github.com/w3c/webcodecs/issues/211 and the related question at https://github.com/w3c/webcodecs/issues/199.
Note that there is agreement in the Working Group to expose WebCodecs in DedicatedWorker context, and so this CfC is limited to exposing the APIs on Window.
The CfC will run for 10 days and will end on Friday 2nd July.
Please reply to this email and state one of the following:
* I support exposing VideoEncoder, AudioEncoder, VideoDecoder, and AudioDecoder in Window contexts at this time
* I prefer to defer decision on exposing VideoEncoder, AudioEncoder, VideoDecoder, and AudioDecoder in Window contexts at this time
In your reply, please detail your reasoning.

Please send only one reply per member organisation.
Many thanks,
Chris (for the Media WG co-chairs)
