How... useful.

Do you have a multistreamed consciousness, or something? How on earth can 
you pay *attention* to two videos at the same time? (And if you're only 
paying attention to one, isn't the other one annoying, flickering away in 
the background?)

Think several browser tabs with embedded video players. Only one of them may actually play at
any time, but only one of them can get the single overlay port.

Argh, yes, I see, because they won't even display a paused image without 
an overlay.
