Investigated: Nothing bad is actually happening, just some error logging. The root cause is that code internal to the Media Router Component extension is preparing the Media Remoting subsystem for use, and that subsystem can't start because it can't identify a tab. That's just fine.

Note that no code is trying to switch out of mirroring and over to a remoting session. The error logs are referring to the start of the subsystem, not a session.

As this is not a Chromium issue, closing as WontFix. Also, I double-checked that this is not a problem in the upcoming Chromium C++ replacement for the extension code (in src/components/mirroring).
