 ## Future improvements
 
+### Embedded audio/video player in browsers
+
+* For a given enclosure, depending on autodetected MIME:
+    * `audio/*` -> `<audio>`
+    * `video/*` -> `<video>`
+* For a given template:
+    * `page.tmpl` -> eagerly fetch media
+    * `inlinepage.tmpl` -> fetch just enough to display durations
+* Only for HTML5 sites, or also okay for XHTML?
+* Does this work well enough in enough browsers, or do we need a
+  JavaScript player to fill in some gaps?
+
 ### iTunes fancy podcasting
 
 * [iTunes-specific tags](https://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html)
   appear to be RSS-only
-    * If they work in Atom, teach `inline` to optionally iTunesify RSS/Atom.
-    * Else, add `itunes` as a third kind of feed (RSS plus more stuff).
+    * Can we always include them in RSS feeds, or would that break
+      some feed readers?
+    * Is it even valid to include them in Atom feeds? If so, do
+      Atom podcasts look any better in podcatchers?
+    * Avoid adding a third kind of feed (`itunesrss`), or options
+      to the existing `rss` and `atom` feeds, unless we have to.
 * Notable tags for feeds:
     * `itunes:subtitle`
     * `itunes:author`

 ### Other ideas
 
-* Don't render template text (e.g., "Use this template to insert a
-  note into a page") in feeds.
-    * [[schmonz]] observes this in a dual-feed (one for enclosures,
-      another for browsers) scenario, but not in the typical case.
-      Remaining to be verified: that once migrated to fancypodcast,
-      this stops being a problem.
 * Optionally specify the enclosure's:
     * MIME type, in case `File::MimeInfo` guesses wrong.
     * Duration, in case `ffprobe` guesses wrong.
