FW(little)IW I prefer this as well.

It's not particularly hard to port the CMML ogg mapping to another 
temporal xml document, but isn't simpler to not have to. And we 
automatically get the hyperlink and indexing support. Alsoe, given 
confusion very low bitrate streams seem to cause in seeking, 
having everything in one place might be a good idea in general.
