Re: [mediacapture-main] what is the default channelCount (#775)

I sense people thinking that OS defaults are very important, and so that if the OS says that the default is something, then we should listen. So I'm willing to conclude from the discussion that OS defaults are more important than predictability.

So let's only look at when there are no OS defaults for a particular setting. E.g. after constraints processing and knowing which device to pick and filtering out any settings according the constraints processing, you are left with more than a single configuration for the said device, and no OS defaults to tell you which one is better.

Example: After constraints processing you know you're going to open camera X which is capable of being opened in resolution A or B and the default does not say if A or B is better. Both A and B are spec-compliant today. What do you do?

In this case, a "tie-breaker" must be implemented. Question is: should the spec give any guidance here, or should every User Agent come up with their own solution?
