This is legacy API that should be deprecated and removed (https://crbug.com/699846) in favor of spec-compliant RTCRtpSender.dtmf ( https://crbug.com/806872 ), but it is currently shipped.
It is based on |local_streams_|. It should be updated to rely on senders's tracks or "streams of senders" so that we can remove |local_streams_| and so that DTMF users can use spec-compliant addTrack() instead of legacy addStream().
This would also do some of the prerequisite work for RTCRtpSender.dtmf.
