As far as I know, every major browser (IE 9 > beta, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera) do this. As Monty discovered, Firefox does not make the poster disappear until the video is played. Feel free to file bugs against any browsers that behave differently; just because the spec allows something doesn't mean it's a good idea! Tightening up the spec to require the poster to remain until the video is played does sound like a good idea. We do need a spec change to allow the poster to be shown when the video has ended, if that is the most commonly desired behavior.
