Description David Dorwin 2013-12-16 20:08:46 UTC 
It's odd that we have "Media" and thus the full type (MediaKeys) in the setting function ("setMediaKeys()") but not in the attribute ("keys"). They both operate on the same type and reference the same underlying object.

We should either rename the attribute to "mediaKeys" or rename the method to "setKeys()"

Using the full type name is nice, but "Media" is also redundant since these are members of HTMLMediaElement.

Discussed in telcon today. Proposal was to rename attribute to mediaKeys. Change is here: https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-media/rev/5356bcc1bf3a
