FWIW, there’s also a wily version of oxide-qt in the overlay PPA, so
the silo needs to be dual-landing, and both releases need to be
source-copied, for completeness.

I did a bit of testing today, and there’s more to enabling WebRTC than
just connecting to the mediaAccessPermissionRequested signal.
I tested https://apprtc.appspot.com/ on arale and desktop, and I’m
getting the following 2 errors:

    Error getting user media: getUserMedia is not a function

    Create PeerConnection exception: RTCPeerConnection is not a function

I’m guessing we need to enable those bits in our chromium build?
