This part should be fixable by creating a video stream which just
contains black (or a "anonymous user" icon or some such).

Of course, the UI would not be ideal since it would likely look
different than if the user face-mutes in-app.

So if the spec uses a different syntax for allowing the user to
face-mute, which can be turned on/off at any time, then implementing
that mechanism and hooking into that does indeed sound better. Is that
what you're referring to with the last paragraph in the original post?
