Most certainly.

Imagine a hardware manufacturer, or software vendor that sells a product with WebM support (eg. through YouTube integration). File a lawsuit against Google because WebM infringes on some patent, but keep on shipping products with WebM support.

That would keep litigators in their closets if WebM has any traction at that point.
