Martin said: 

"However, in our implementation, it's likely that confirming that a track is a compatible replacement could require asynchronous dispatches to a separate thread.  Blocking the main processing thread for a synchronous dispatch would be very bad.  In general, I'd prefer to have things that need to look at media be asynchronous to avoid any risk that a synchronous dispatch is needed."

[BA] Would it be possible to handle this via a Promise?
