Does this have the same privacy protections as current gUM?

Is current gUM restricted to authenticated origins? If it isn't, is it
realistic to restrict it to authenticated origins?

I gather that gUM requires prompting even for packaged apps, which
seems good to me. Is that the case? However, the Camera app currently
has access to the camera without any prompting ever. Will the Camera
app start prompting or will it perhaps be pre-authorized somehow when
it migrates to gUM+this new API? If yes, could the pre-authorization
be reflected in App permissions? (Currently the Camera app clearly has
special powers that App permissions doesn't show, which makes me feel
I can't trust App permissions. See
