Follow up to #6698 without HPB
When the HPB is used and a video is disabled or not visible the received video is disconnected and not received until enabled or visible again.
Without the HPB this requires support for renegotiations in all the clients, as in this case the client disconnecting the video needs to renegotiate the connection with the client sending it; with the HPB the renegotiation needs to be done only with the HPB, so the sender client is not involved. But beside renegotiations I am sure that there will be other issues that will need to be solved ;-)

Research direction
Start by reading the follow-up issue #6698 and tracing how clients handle disabled or non-visible received video when the HPB is used. Determine the renegotiation requirements for the no-HPB case; done means received video disconnects while disabled or not visible and resumes when enabled or visible again.
