It’s quite impressive, the history of the video tag. Vendors can come to agreement that it’s a good idea, implement the tag consistently – and yet still have it completely useless because they haven’t decided on one common codec that they all could use…

I guess you have considered something like “browsers implementing SHOULD support both the H264 and OGG formats, but MUST support at least one of them”?
That would give us 2 baseline codecs, which is oviously worse than one, but seems to have a higher chance of uptake?
