[jira] [Created] (CB-6697) Autostart video capture option

Max Franz created CB-6697:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Autostart video capture option
                 Key: CB-6697
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6697
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Plugin Media Capture
            Reporter: Max Franz
            Priority: Minor


It would be great to have an option to automatically start recording the video for the media capture plugin once invoked.  

Opening the capture video UI will usually happen as a result of user interaction (e.g. a tap), so it's deliberate on the user's part.  Thus, we can eliminate the second tap (red rec button) in many usecases by starting the recording as soon as `capture.captureVideo()` is invoked.  This can greatly increase user experience by reducing repetition.

This should definitely be optional, because there are usecases where the user would not want to start recording right away.
