Owner Descriptor

An owner descriptor is an arbitrary name describing an instant client conducting a stream - as the owner of the stream.

It is assigned by the instant client to a channel through which it streams.

It is assigned at the point of use as the first argument of the stream function property.

An attempt to assign a similar owner descriptor to multiple clients may lead to collisions such as all clients using that same descriptor value simultaneously exiting the stream access when any of them exits the stream.
