It's _not_ playing H.264. It's playing WebM/VP8 and Theora though.

Tabs on top makes actually sense as the stuff above the tabs was tab
dependent. So from a logical point of view only tabs on top make sense
at all. And minimal interface is also just evolution as the important
stuff happens within the content window nowadays and not in the browser
chrome.
