こんにちは TAG-さん!

I'm requesting a TAG review of DisplayMediaStreamOptions monitorTypeSurfaces.

When getDisplayMedia() is called, the browser offers the user a choice of display surfaces: tabs, windows, or monitors. Using the monitorTypeSurfaces option, the web application may now hint to the browser if it prefers to include display surfaces whose type is monitor among the choices offered to the user. The browser may still ignore this hint. Web applications are therefore encouraged to still check the displaySurface setting of the tracks they receive.

You should also know that this feature is a simple addition of a single flag to an existing dictionary, following an established pattern that’s also used by a few other keys of the same dictionary (selfBrowserSurface, systemAudio, surfaceSwitching). well-known patterns. We already filed a TAG review for similar options at https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/744 which was marked as satisfied.

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please delete all but the desired option):
