video and audio should have controls="" and autoplay=""

The spec allows browsers to do that (in fact it explicitly calls out
autoplay=""), but do we really want to require one or the other? I can see
arguments for having only one or the other or both.

Autoplaying is obviously subject to user preference, but I see no point in not providing controls (assuming the output rendering is interactive, of course). Theoretically speaking, those controls should of course be stylable. That that may well be difficult to implement, however.
