Re: [webrtc-pc] More simulcast examples (#2035)

I have been looking at simulcast (and rids) in the last few weeks. i have some ideas around areas that need work. some of them might be real, others might be a result of me being new to webrtc.
Here is a list of things i have yet to understand or track down. These are mostly things described in the spec, but there is a lack of understanding how these originate from the user via the public API:
1. How does the user specify the alternatives in a simulcast layer?
2. How does the user specify restrictions for layers (rids)?
3. How does the user indicate that a layer should be paused?
4. How are dependencies between rids specified by the user?
5. More specifics regarding the receiver of simulcast?

Another issue is that simulcast is a general mechanism for a media channel but all examples (and  scenarios) are only for use in video. An audio example could help with that.

I'll be happy to coordinate on the spec to help clarify these issues and uncover new ones.
