That's out of the scope of the out-of-the-box defaults. Flash is ugly, yes, but it's not practical for Ubuntu to provide a replacement that's suitable for all web sites that use Flash video. And it's probably not wise to provide a solution for a specific site, like YouTube. Maintaining such workarounds just isn't practical, especially for a LTS. Besides, remember that iOS has YouTube-specific features. You're talking about apples and oranges.
Since there is now a proven workaround for the bug, I think Ubuntu should consider packaging it and releasing it, as Mr. Tikhonov has.
