Ah, so I guess the internal [[backpressure]] slot on `WritableStream` is just stream/controller communication.  Still, the TAG has generally supported exposing the underlying concepts that explain how things work so that people have the ability to fix them when needed -- at least as long as that doesn't add lots of complexity.  It's not obvious to me at first glance how that idea fits in here.

I'm still curious if you've thought through whether backpressure works well for media streams.
