If I was going to do a [][] link extension for <video> and
<audio>, I'd do something like
[horrid html 5 video](video:http://example.dom/film.m4v)
to generate
<video src="http://example.dom/film.m4v";>horrid html 5 video</video>
and if someone wanted to wrap an <a>, I'd force them to do
[[horrid html 5
video](http://example.dom/film.m4v)](video:http://example.dom/film.m4v)
(under the logic of "if you're going to want a quirks mode for
browsers that don't support html five, you're going to have to do
it yourself; <video> and <audio> won't be generally useful until
a critical mass of browsers support it, and when they do it won't
be particularly useful to have the backwards compatability. And
if I 'm going to embed a video link marked as video, I'd want to
just use the html that's appropriate for it.)
