I'd rather my ISP did not try to "fix" the websites I visit. :)

What about a layer even further up then? Straight in the website serving the Flash content, so that they can serve HTML5 directly?

Actually, that is kind of brilliant. Wouldn't it be easier as a one-time compile though? And doesn't Adobe make a tool for that?
