Steps to reproduce:

Visited to a WebRTC-based conference tool that enables screen sharing. Tried to share my entire screen with the others


Actual results:

A pop-up showed asked which window I wanted to share. It neatly listed all my windows, but I couldn't find an option there to share my entire screen, independently of the application.


Expected results:

I think one of the options available should be to share the entire screen.

Firefox lets the web site choose whether to ask the user for either their screen or a window.

Try it here http://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/gum_test.html

This selection-choice is a non-spec feature.

To implement the spec, we would need to do that.
