After thinking about this, I'm not sure that limiting playback to a

Transcript anyone ? If you want to embed a lecture, for example, it
makes sense to be able to "link" to specific points.
Certainly.
A developer can
easily script the same functionality as long as they don't use the
default controller, so it seems to me that attributes for this aren't
warranted.
How ?
A script-based controller can easily control the section(s) that
are playable as it provides the UI and thus controls the user's access
to the media resource. You can have the controller's timeline show
just the section you want to play, you can have the controller show
the entire duration and limit seeking to just the section, etc.
