User agents should provide controls to enable or disable the display of closed
captions, audio description tracks, and other additional data associated with
the video stream, though such features should, again, not interfere with the
page's normal rendering.

Yes, they should.  The HTML spec doesn't prevent this.
Comment 2 Martin Kliehm 2011-02-08 16:37:50 UTC 
The bug-triage sub-team thinks this is a duplicate og bug 9452 (Handling of additional tracks of a multitrack audio/video resource) that has been escalated to ISSUE-152 and where the media sub-team has provided a proposal.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 9452 ***
