That definitely sounds reasonable from the QA perspective.

Like the idea, but something I'm thinking about extending off of this - what 
about the web compatibility side of this? We know that certain sites right now 
even with h264 support tested through b2g and ice cream sandwich with Android 
sometimes are still not serving us the right content - which could be 1) an 
evangelism problem 2) some internal issue that we can control (such as the 
issue we discovered recently with videos served in h264 format from 
brightcove).

When you mean demo, do you mean "proof of concept" level to prove that it 
works? Just wondering what FF version desktop support for h264 intends to be 
supported for, so that way, QA knows when to be ready to help out.

Curious, why not include shipping gUM in this list in Firefox 19?
