Once upon a time (~2003), it was possible to use SMIL to seamlessly play/edit videos from multiple streaming servers, with pre-buffering of clips so that the composite video stream was continuous. This could be hosted at any HTTP address which returned an SMIL file.
Is a similar capability possible today, with any video player?
One example, is that even with CSS Animations, CSS Transitions, Web Animations and the Motion Path module, we still couldn’t create a font using SVG-in-OpenType where the outlines of the glyphs wiggle.
Yeah, maybe not everyone is excited by moving fonts. How about, you couldn't make animated cartoons (which often rely on animating path data) and embed them as <img>s like you can with animated GIFs?

Uh... I don't think you're helping your case...
