The tricky bit here is that the Flash swf needs to enable the JS API and
then provide hooks from that API to the actionscripts. That way you
could make a JS call like FlashObject.pause() and internally the JS
pause method would be mapped to call the actionscript used by the pause
button. While this is all doable in a one-off situation, making it work
globally or in just Vimeo or YouTube is non-trivial. That's what's great
about the new HTML5 video tags. The browser backplane generates the
video playback, for better or for worse. That means Safari provides the
hooks that an accessible UI would use. Chances are very high that if
you're implementing your video via the video tag then your controls will
also be HTML so they should be usable with voiceover.

You can't control flash that way as the whole framework is in carbon. Until we
get adobe stuff in coco, it won't help much to do anything. unless you call out
flash buttons from javascript and get safari to read the labels and buttons
extracted from javascript then plug it back in via the same bridge. Now that
might be interesting...to be noted.
