What is the use case for not allowing the user to show a video somewhere 
else? Whether to show videos on a secondary screen or what video decoder 
to use depends more on the circumstances of the viewer(s) than the video 
server. For example, when located at home, I would want videos I 
navigate to on my handheld computer to be fetched by my router and drawn 
to my larger living room display. On my desktop, I would want the same 
navigation to result in the the video being rendered to a window on the 
screen of the desktop. Both could be achieved with <a href type>.
