Details

This would allow for access to MediaStream from web workers.  For things like web audio this could be extremely useful.

For Bug 971986, this could allow loop to avoid the getUserMedia prompt by acquiring the MediaStream in chrome code and to use a message channel to transfer the object to content code.

No longer blocks loop, might still be worth doing.  Would require new sinks and sources in the MSG, plus some extra (unknown) transfer capabilities.

Bug Scrub removed blocker to bug 971986.  Martin tracking as part of audio.  May do if Chrome permission style changes.  Not on backlog yet though.
