Re: Improvements suggestion for DataChannels

I think is implicit the DataChannel should be removed from the
PeerConnection list inconditionally when it gets closed, so the list is
only of currently active, open DataChannel objects. Later, on a side note,
if someone get a reference to a DataChannel object both from calling
createDataChannel() or from the list, it will be GC when it gets closed and
all references disappear... At least it's the most logical behaviour (and
the one I was proposing, sorry if there was some misunderstands).
