I see just one reasonable option: *if* there is such a thing as a "good"
Flash video format variant (meaning that Gnash or similar can play
that), spread this one (as "secondary" format, e.g. YouTube et al. -- the
primary on FSF sites would be still OGG/Theora), thus "anticipating"
the format conversion.
