Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Writable Streams (#163)

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

I think so, by analogy with TCP/IP. The network stack does careful accounting of window sizes, but all that is exposed to user space is "can write now" or "can't write now".

I am expecting to start initial work on integration between media and streams in the next few months. Backpressure is one area I am very confident in.

I know @domenic considered many more use cases in the design of backpressure for streams, so he will probably have more to say here.
