A question came up when reviewing this, I'm hoping you can help clarify: How does the capturing web app (i.e. Meet) know what I want to do with audio? Would I not be able to achieve the same result by simply muting the tab or even just muting the device (since it seems unlikely that there are other sounds wanted from the local device when sharing a tab with audio)?
This seems like it would be better under the control of the user instead of being a decision made by the application especially since I don't see a mention of how this would be presented to the user and/or potentially reverted by them.
