[media] WHATWG started requirements collection for time-aligned text

Hi media subgroup,

I just wanted to make you aware that the WHATWG has started collecting
examples of time-aligned text displays (captions, subtitles, chapter
markers etc) and is extrapolating requirements from these in their
wiki at http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Timed_tracks ,
http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Use_cases_for_timed_tracks_rendered_over_video_by_the_UA
and http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Use_cases_for_API-level_access_to_timed_tracks.

If you have any good examples (screenshots of real-world applications)
for further requirements that are not currently listed there but are
required on the Web, please contribute. You can just email your
examples into this email thread here and I will be happy to contribute
it to the WHATWG if you don't know how to get it there yourself.

Cheers,
Silvia.
