--- Comment #7 from Philip Jägenstedt <philipj@opera.com> 2011-08-18 09:20:22 UTC ---
It seems extremely unlikely that this is actually going to work. As soon as a
few major browsers have implemented preload="none" as not downloading anything
initially, people will write scripts like this:
<video preload=none src=video.webm></video>
<script>
var v = document.querySelector('video');
v.onclick = function() {
v.onloadedmetadata = function() {
// create UI using v.duration
};
v.play();
};
</script>
Any browser that fires the loadedmetadata event for preload=none will simply
not work. Will you be willing to spec this when it becomes requires for web
compat?
