To further clarify that last point....

There are already 10 thousand subtitle formats out there, and I'm very weary of
defining our 'own'. I'd rather see a special 'parser' that converts into a new
'internal' format, then that we make changes in the storage format.

Perhaps we can create a new API module that outputs this, instead of using
'parse'. This new api can have all the time information, language, direction
etc in an easily readable format for the Javascript, doing away with the JS
side regex parsing, and can have an array of 'lines' that have been MediaWiki
parsed individually. The JS client can then concat these lines with <br>

This seems like much more future-proof system.
