"the design" is not clear here.  If you mean:  it must be possible for
a WebRTC system to be built that connects with emergency services,
then we already agree.  If you mean *all WebRTC applications* must be
buit to interwork with emergency services then we disagree.  There are
clear use cases for games, chat roulette-style casual encounter
systems, and similar that do not have any need for PSTN gateways and
for which emergency services should not be expected.  We can discuss
it more in person at the meeting, but I don't see any reason to
revisit this decision.

Again, my personal view.
