Generally, I like this approach. Some (hopefully easy) nits below.

By "forces" you mean "even if I don't include a video stream"?
That's what I'm taking from Adam's comment.
What happens if I AddStream() a video stream  but set this to
false?

Maybe it would make more sense to have this *only* control
generating a recv-type media stream and have addstream
control only a send-type.

Hmm... So I can't update my iceOptions when I do createAnswer?
If I want to convert from relay only I have to do updateIce?
