Re: [webrtc-pc] Should garbage collecting RTCPeerConnection be observable? (#3090)

> I think today's design principle is more about keeping implementation-defined behavior out of specs, because it's inherently web incompatible.

Ok, that's fine with me. I'm not interested in doing that. What I am asking is to give enough room to allow the implementation to do the right thing wrt transport protocol; to not *force* the implementation to do something broken, like leaving a transport hanging.

> A UA that doesn't GC its connection until either the web app explicitly closes it or the web app is unloaded, is a valid implementation.

I mean, I guess. If an implementation decides not to clean up after itself, it is that implementation's prerogative.
