Tell us about the problem you are trying to solve and why is it hard?

When starting a Content share from screen capture the selected window/browser tab is automatically focused.
Since this is confusing for a lot of people we want to disable this behaviour.
There is experimental feature CaptureController where one can decide if the selected surface should be focused or not.
Since Chrome 109 released on 10th of January 2023 there is officially support for this support.
I see no way to make this work with the current API of "startContentShareFromScreenCapture".

Could you add a optional CaptureController parameter for "startContentShareFromScreenCapture"?

SelfCapturePreference should be worth noting for the team.

How are you currently solving a problem?

There are no workarounds - this is the current behaviour of all browsers - afaik

Anything else we should know?

Thanks for submitting a feature request. I could bring this back to our team for further discussion.
In the mean time, can you try to manually capture the screen with the above API and get the screen capture stream yourself and use startContentShare to sharing screen?
As you can see we do the same with startContentShareFromScreenCapture.
