WebRTC support and Chromium Embedded Framework in LiveCode

I assume CEF doesn't build the WebRTC support in the Chromium project by
default because it has extra dependencies on the audio stack. I guess
LiveCode could include such support if it wanted.
Does LiveCode plan to bundle CEF on Android? Given the built-in web view
in Android is already based on Chromium that would seem like a lot of
bloat for little gain.
For iOS it's against the App Store rules to include your own browser
engine (no downloadable code execution allowed) and not even technically
possible to ship the V8 JavaScript engine (because you can't mark memory
both writable and executable - so can't ship your own JIT compiler). As
far as I know Safari doesn't yet support WebRTC on Mac OS or iOS. Even
when it does, there's not yet any guarantee that it will have a common
video codec with other implementations because the standards people
can't agree on a mandatory one.
