What are you trying to achieve with 'sign' or 'caption' attributes? They won't
help you in exposing a video or audio element better to a screenreader.
Right now, indeed, the way to consume video is through its controls.
==
In a related note: I've been thinking about video interaction for a bit and I
think we have some problems in our spec.
Firstly, the "video" element is not regarded as "interactive content" when
there are no @controls, see
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/elements.html#interactive-content
.
It would be better to assume that video is always interactive content. Then,
when there are no controls, we would have click interaction on the poster frame
for play/pause. This is the most fundamental interaction that we need for these
elements and it should always be possible.
Secondly, as a consequence of making video interactive, we also need it to be
tabfocussable, which it currently isn't:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/editing.html#focus-management
.
Thus, the interaction I am after would be to be able to find the video element
during normal tabbing and be able to hit "enter" to toggle between play/pause.
Would that satisfy your use case?
