Re: [mediacapture-screen-share] Distinguish cancellations from absent OS permissions (#281)

Do we know of precedents where the message's contents are specified?

You'd think so, but in practice, no browser I know of does that. Realistically, when can we expect to get to it? Until we do, Web applications are trying to fill in the gap; helping them do so easily and interoperably should be easy for us.

Agreed.
