A tab can request access to WebRTC. If that tab is hidden there could be zero indication to a user that the tab is using the camera or microphone. We should show this somewhere in the browser.
This is currently a red flashing camera shown in the URL bar if its the active tab and shown in the tab if its not. In the case of a hidden tab, that indication would be missing.

tabs with active sessions cannot be hidden, and background tabs cannot gain device access.
