There will be one for each container format. So far the plan is TrackUID for
Matroska/WebM, PID for MPEG-TS (although one group wants a descriptor to be
used for this), and Ogg is the tricky one since there could be several
different IDs, but everyone seems to agree that the skeleton Name header should
be used if it exists.

You can see the work-in-progress here:

Chromium already uses TrackUID for WebM, and since they basically own that spec
I'd be surprised if that changed.
