I rather like the CP, though I'm definitely not a fan of the name. You argue that some people are confused by the current name of the @poster attribute, but the term "poster frame" seems to be well-established in general. "firstframe" seems to imply that it can only hold the first frame of the video, which is incorrect. I'd prefer to stick with either <poster>, or perhaps <posterframe>. ~TJ
