Comment (by mttp):

 For the record, someone suggested on #10628 that we replace the Firefox
 user agent string with an IE10 or IE11 user agent string. This actually
 works in that many YouTube videos that wouldn't play before, suddenly play
 successfully when the UA is changed. Mike pointed out that this could end
 up breaking a bunch of other sites, however.
