[webrtc-rtptransport] What is the scope of the circuit breaker ? (#92)

steely-glint has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-rtptransport:

== What is the scope of the circuit breaker ? ==
In api-outline 
`
// Triggers when the circuit-breaker kicks in.
  attribute EventHandler oncandidatedisabled;

  // Triggers when the circuit-breaker backs off.
  attribute EventHandler oncandidateenabled;
`

Implies that the circuit breaker only acts on a candidate. 
At the least it is probably an attribute of a candidate pair.
However you could have an app that immediately flips to use another pair and then flips back, if the circuit breaker is per candidate (pair) then it could be fooled by this behaviour.

I think it has to be scoped per page/app/worker ?
