Except that it's totally infeasible to hack h264 support into Firefox -- they link directly with liboggplay instead of a more wholesome API (portable like ffmpeg's, or native like QT/DirectShow/GStreamer) precisely to keep you from doing so without a ton of pain.

They pull ideological bullshit like this all the time (not treating iso8859-1 as cp1252, refusing to do font-face for years, etc). I hope their heads fall off.
