--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We think the association between cue and track should be dropped when the cue is removed. It should be possible to move a cue between tracks and between videos. This would simplify our impl and remove restrictions for authors. At least for out-of-band cues. (If certain restrictions make sense for in-band cues, that's fine; we haven't implemented that yet and don't have a proposal for how they should behave exactly at this point.)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
addCue and removeCue should never throw InvalidStateError (at least for out-of-band cues).
