Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] API for display-capturing the current tab (#625)

The Chrome decision on the "need for elevated permission" for getDisplayMedia (which presents all the capture surfaces without calling out special considerations about their risks) was based on the understanding that the most common use cases would be displaying a tab or displaying the screen, so it did not make much sense to increase the cognitive overload by calling out cases that had lower risk than the common ones.

It is logical based on this standpoint that presenting the present tab as a capture option doesn't need any more elevated warning; the warning is already elevated.
