mplayer doesn't depend on any browser, or browser-related library.

As for the mozilla-mplayer, we could either move browser-related
Depends to Recommends, or include all browser in one OR Depends. The
latter might be a bit wrong in one extreme case:
 - new browser package, named browser-package, gets into Ubuntu archives
 - user wants to use only browser-package, which is compatible with
mozilla-mplayer
 - unfortunately, browser-package still isn't added to that OR browser
Depends, so user is forced to install some other browser, too

It is a very rare situation, but it can happen :).
