OK, but I don't see why the player needs to be tailored to the codec. Why wouldn't this player work for Theora as well?

Good point: Could you use the Sublime HTML/JS set for other codecs? Probably could -- the codec would make less of a difference to transport control functionality than the browser's varying support for JavaScript and VIDEO APIs would be.
Yes, all that's necessary is for the content author to provide a Theora encoded version of the video.
