I think we want to make video a first class citizen of the web. That
means, IMHO, that there must be a simple way to add video to HTML
pages. I don't think one shoulr rely on other languages for this,
although I'm perfectly happy supporting those other languages as well.
Part of the reason why we could to this so quickly is the work we have
done on SVG.
