IHMO This is where mozilla-bonobo (or a similar solution) can make a
real difference for users.

Example:

http://www.inf.fu-berlin.de/inst/zdm/livecasting/demo_test/real-emb-controlinf.html

(Sorry it's not a real world example but it was the first thing I found
goggling. It's common in real web sites though)

To view that web page you have either to install a proprietary plugin or
look at the html source, download the video and play it with totem.
