Exposing geolocation on unauthenticated origins was a mistake. Copying
that for getUserMedia() is too. I suggest that to protect our users we
make some noise about deprecating this practice. And that in that
message we convey we plan to disable both on unauthenticated origins
once 2015 is over.

More immediately we should make it impossible to make persistent
grants for these features on unauthenticated origins.

I can reach out to Google (and Apple & Microsoft I suppose, though I
haven't seen much from them on the pro-TLS front) to see if they would
be on board with this and help us spread the message.

for geolocation.
