This means that we'll will only autoplay if a media element is in a

document. Why do we prevent media elements not in a document from

autoplaying? We allow audio from a media element not in a document to

play, why not allow autoplay to work while not in a document too?

I note that Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera all autoplay when a media

element is not in a document. It looks like IE9 Beta never autoplays

unless the media element is hard coded in the HTML file with an autoplay

attribute; IE9 doesn't seem to honour autoplay set from script.

Unless there's a good reason not to, and since most browsers have

implemented autoplay when not in a document anyway, perhaps we should

update the spec to match the implemented behaviour?

Subversion is too slow to say exactly when, but "and the media element is in a Document whose browsing context did not have the sandboxed automatic features browsing context flag set when the Document was created" was added to the spec quite recently, after Opera implemented autoplay anyway.

Assuming the change in behavior was accidental, the spec should instead say "and the media element is not in a Document whose browsing context had the sandboxed automatic features browsing context flag set when the Document was created".
