Mozilla intent to implement

The API design doesn't make sense to me, and perhaps we could help with that, but I think that's a lesser concern next to the idea of an entirely new identity primitive. This is worth us all understanding and making sure it fits well with the rest of the platform.

I need to do a lot of reading to really get this. The Mozilla intent to implement gives a nice one-paragraph overview, but the entire WebRTC world is pretty far outside my area of expertise. Any help would be welcome.

The other new primitive here is the <iframe> not visible from the page. You cannot do that yourself in that way.

Discussed at London F2F; @dherman and @domenic to take lead. Need a few weeks to digest / discuss.
