WebRTC in live media production

The use case described in the presentation is splitting media workflows between different browser contexts, e.g., editing audio in one window while monitoring video feeds in popout windows.

A separate but related development is the Multi-Screen Window Placement API, in development in the Second Screen CG. Also the Picture In Picture API for arbitrary DOM elements, see https://github.com/w3c/picture-in-picture/issues/113.
