If we're able to ship a build with no codecs, but for which a user could 
download a plugin and just drop-in to their application to enable the feature, 
we should do it.

That's exactly what we do for other technologies like:
 * SSL (you need to install OpenSSL)
 * MySQL and Postgres databases (build plugins)

Note that QtMultimedia uses GStreamer as a backend, which already supports 
plugins, including proprietary ones. It's just Chromium/Blink that do things 
differently.
