'Usable' is a very subjective concept. Regardless, I expect modern web
applications would have an in-page control to switch cameras. But my
expectations might be wrong, in which case this is absolutely
something that we should reconsider.

As Alex pointed out in an earlier answer:

« we are also discussing how to integrate webapp specific settings
from the UI perspective to possibly tweak the default »

But this is not trivial from a UX perspective, given that most webapps
want the minimum amount of chrome (ideally none).

There are several known issues (most of them filed by you, keep them
coming!) that, when fixed, should greatly improve the default WebRTC
experience on ubuntu touch. I understand your frustration with the
current state of affairs (a half-working implementation that’s not
suited for lambda users), it is being addressed and is among our
priorities for OTA-11.
