--- Comment #4 from David Dorwin <ddorwin@google.com> ---
It doesn't matter too much to me - the primary downside is the extra work for
implementors. How important is the declarative case given that many (most?) EME
apps will use MSE as well? 

I'm a bit concerned that the same logic (type + key system) needs to be spread
across objects to support both <source> and MediaKeys::isTypeSupported(). I
don't have experience to say how big of an issue that is, though.

If this makes sense for EME, does it make sense for MSE as well? I guess the
assumption there is that you either support MSE for ISO/WebM or you wouldn't
support any such extensions to HTMLSourceElement. Browsers that don't support
MSE might get an automatic fallback without needing to make any changes,
though. (If there is interest in this idea, we should file a separate bug for
MSE. I'm just bringing it up here for context.)
