OK, it's come to my attention that YouTube has recently begun to
require media stream extensions (MSE) for higher-quality video
playback. It seems some users are able to play 480p and 720p videos,
while others (including myself) are stuck with only 360p videos. I'm
not sure why it's different for different users.

WebKit does not support MSE yet. We have experimental MSE code under
active development, but it's not compiled unless you set a hidden build
option (-DENABLE_MEDIA_STREAM). I'm CCing one of the developers who
might be able to give us an update on progress there.
