Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Conversion to RGB in VideoFrame.copyTo() (Issue #951)

Thanks for giving this opportunity to review this work.  We see this as a useful addition to the platform.

We do observe that there is a lot of uncoordinated work on color across the platform.  Our understanding of the situation is that CSS is quite advanced with its work on color spaces and the media pipeline (video and so forth) is more advanced with high dynamic range content.  Having a uniform platform-wide would be desirable and we'd encourage you to engage with CSS folks on the subject to have that happen. You might consider proposing a [TPAC session](https://github.com/w3c/tpac2024-breakouts/issues) on this topic?

We do think that the name is a little misleading here as the "copy" part of the operation isn't the most important aspect; it's the conversion or transform that is the important action.  Is this something that warrants a new API?  `copyTo` looks to be relatively new, is it possible to choose a better name?

Finally, from a process perspective, we'd strongly encourage you to take this work to the Media Working Group repo rather than sitting in someone's private GitHub account.

Either way, this work looks like a useful contribution, so we're closing this as `satisfied with concerns`.
