Thank you Matt for the suggestion! I did it ��
To Others: please do it as well to weigh in!

Howto: 
1. You need to use Safari for https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/
  (Chrome won't work, you get a 403)
2. You need to login with your Apple developer account to submit the feedback.
3. Mention iOS 14 in the title
4. Select "WebKit" as area

Here is what I posted in the description:

Bug https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208667

This bug is a HUGE problem for several reasons:

1. It prevents ALL Cordova apps and apps relying on WkWebViews to use the WebRTC standard.
   Just because of this bug, we are forced to recommend all our clients to use Android phones & tablets, that's too bad.

2. It prevents ALL other browsers on iOS to offer video-conferencing, while Safari can
   => it's a nasty anti-competitive behaviour that will for sure be scrutinized by US House Antitrust Committee & EU Commission,
   and Apple should not accumulate evidence of evil conduct.

3. More generally speaking, fixing this bug would prove that Apple is committed to W3C standards for WebKit,
   and that WebKit is not a second class citizen in Apple ecosystem.
   Being faster than Chrome on rendering while lagging on standards is pointless.

Good luck for the fix!
