No one has gotten to implementing that, yet. Also, not all people are
happy with the built-in player for videos so allowing external players
is how it's going to have to be until all the functionality is there
and bugs are all worked out. If videos are tied to streaming from the
backend, you would be tied to using the internal player.

Yes. That would be ideal.
