Re: [rtcweb] Playing regulator

It is easy to imagine applications of WebRTC where the users will not 
have any expectation that they could use it for emergency services.
E.g. a web page only providing access to a specific company's customer 
service.
So, each application does not need to provide this access.

However, the platform has apparent ambitions to be possible to use for 
telephony like applications, with an opportunity to call by address or 
number,
E.g
4.3.1 
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-rtcweb-use-cases-and-requirements-10#section-4.3.1>. 
Telephony terminal

In at least that case, there will be an expectation from users, and a 
requirement from regulators in many countries to be able to provide 
emergency service access.

So, the topic belongs here in some way.

I withdrew it from the total conversation addition, because it is a 
general function. I hope it will be possible to find a suitable place 
and general wording for it, and there indicate that it is valid for all 
media, including audio, video and real-time text.
