Another problem with using the ID from the stream start even is that there's no
way to figure out which part is the one you want. For example, here's a stream
ID from a video track in WebKit:

9f7fea11efe01e5a6961dd297cbd7f77ddb568657cb2fad96783878d99416edd/00000050

Ok, so the PID is 50 (but it's we need to remove the leading 0's).

And here's a text track:

9f7fea11efe01e5a6961dd297cbd7f77ddb568657cb2fad96783878d99416edd/00000050/user_data_src/src

I doubt we could determine the PID here, even though a human can easily pick it
out.
