STR: 1. With e10s, try to play this CNN video: http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/bestoftv/2014/01/17/ac-ca-wildfires.cnn.html RESULT: The video does not play when e10s is enabled.

Version 29.0a1 User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 The video isn't playing as stated. I'm a newbie ... but I noticed [Child 23969] WARNING: nsWindow::GetNativeData not implemented for this type: file mozilla-central/widget/xpwidgets/PuppetWidget.cpp, line 714
I can play Flash videos on YouTube, but I still can't play this CNN video. This video has a pre-roll ad, so there might be some interaction between the plugin and content.

John, any thoughts on root cause here?

If flash is deciding to use windowed mode it would fail, or it's possible some NPAPI path doesn't make sense from the context of the content process. Until bug 923746 and bug 997483 land, the plugin code is not expected to work right, so it's probably not worth investigating specific broken pages until then. (But worth tracking the bugs so we can revisit)
Depends on: 923746, 997483

Moving old M2 P2 bugs to M4.
Move old M2's low-priority bugs to M6 milestone.
oops: old M2 P2 bugs should have been moved to new M4 milestone, not M6.
