I wasn't suggesting support for the idea, I was just suggesting that it
makes sense to to both video and audio if they are to be done.

However, I currently use export blocks to do video and audio export. I
don't have a problem with continuing that practice since it works well
for me. Here are two examples:

#+begin_export html
<div id="audio-division">
  <audio
    id="audio-tag"
    controls
    preload="metadata">
    <source src="quadratic.mp3"/>
    Your browser does not support the <code>audio</code> tag.
  </audio>
</div>
#+end_export

#+begin_export html
<div id="video-division">
  <video
    id="video-tag"
    src="quadratic.webm"
    controls
    preload="metadata">
    Your browser does not support the <code>video</code> tag.
  </video>
</div>
#+end_export

Styling is done via a CSS file.

It might be difficult to agree on what a video or audio link type
renders to by default.
