There is currently a bug getting video streams to work both ways:

User A starts their camera.
User B opens A's camera - this much works OK.
User A opens B's camera:
- For user B, they see A's camera freeze - the connection was cut off.
- User A can see user B's camera in motion
User B tries to re-open A's camera:
- It happens vice versa: user A sees B's camera freeze, while B can see A's camera normally.

The root cause seems to be in overwriting the WebRTC connection in the front-end code: we keep a map of usernames to WebRTC sockets and the socket is overwritten when one user (who was already streaming video to the other) opens a new connection to receive video from the other.

The frontend should either handle loading the "read" and "write" sockets separately or re-negotiate the one socket to send video both directions.
