Title:
  Hangouts tab is killed to free memory

Status in Oxide:
  Confirmed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The browser will kill non-focused tab processes when it needs to free
  up memory, which is usually fine, but when I have a hangout tab (or
  any video-conference, music streaming, etc) tab open I want to be able
  to navigate to other tabs without those being killed. Could tabs that
  are actively using the microphone, camera, or streaming either video
  or audio, be given an exception to the memory-killer, or at least
  given a different priority than static-content tabs?
