Re: [webrtc-pc] The threading model of webrtc-pc: When are effects of in-parallel stuff surfaced? (#2502)

My position:
- I am against Behavior A because it blocks the JS thread on "in-parallel" work, effectively making them not "in-parallel". Chrome's WebRTC implementation is violating Chromium design principles.
- I am against Behavior B because it is racy.
- I believe Behavior C is the "correct behavior" but I'm afraid fixing the implementations are not worth the benefits. Is there a compromise?

I am happy with updating the spec such that minimum work is required on behalf of browser vendors (ideally none). But right now, I feel like the correct behavior is either undefined or not what current implementations are doing today.
