Youtube & Flash Videos broken?

[paranormal]

I had written an extension, it replaces the original youtube player.
Now it's beta version (at least it has a name...), there is no setup, no
preferences, it just replaces youtube player to <video>Here the best
quality</video>.


Code (don't even try to use master branch):

Zip:

You are free to install this addon and blame me.

There another addon (written by Sukant Garg):
