youennf has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc: == Clarify that remote tracks have a unique ID == The spec says that `Note that the track.id is generated by the [user agent](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#dfn-user-agent) and does not map to any track IDs on the remote side.` The get-user media-spec says that: 1. `[[Id]], initialized to a newly generated unique identifier string. See [MediaStream](https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-main/#dom-mediastream).[id](https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-main/#dom-mediastream-id) attribute for guidelines on how to generate such an identifier.` 2. `A good practice is to use a UUID [[rfc4122](https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-main/#bib-rfc4122)], which is 36 characters long in its canonical form.` Should we update the spec to say something like: `Note that the track.id is a unique identifier string generated by the [user agent](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#dfn-user-agent) and does not map to any track IDs on the remote side.` Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/issues/3084 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
