I think per video window frame is useful for demos, but I would rather 
focus the MediaPlayer persistency more on the regular user.

I use the MediaPlayer to listen to music, and for video playback. I would 
love if it had a way to distinguish between the two uses. It gets more 
complicated because it can playback more files at once. Maybe we want to 
prevent this for audio-only clips? No idea.

In any case, I think we should focus on the alpha more at this time. Even 
just discussing these things right now is somewhat a distraction, though I 
really do not mean this in a rude way, just mentioning. We have some 
critical tasks left before we can release, even if it is just rewriting 
headers. We should definitely discuss how the persistency in MediaPlayer 
should work, so that it can be improved for Alpha2! :-)

Best regards,
-Stephan
