I think it might be good to run the media element load algorithm when setting or changing src on <source> (that has a media element as its parent), but not type and media (what's the use case for type and media?). However it would fire an 'emptied' event for each <source> that changed, which is kind of undesirable. Maybe the media element load algorithm should only be invoked if src is set or changed on a <source> that has no previous sibling <source> elements? -- Simon Pieters Opera Software
