I've heard this theory advanced.

I've not heard it advanced by the people who have written the 
applications that interwork between the present, early WebRTC 
implementations and existing, legacy SDP-using devices, such as sipml5.
What comes out of Chrome is SDP, and conforms to the SDP RFCs. (If not - 
file bugs!)

I'd like this line of argument supported by "when I fire Chrome browser 
SDP at <device>, it doesn't interwork because of <reason>". That's much 
more actionable than "I think".
