 In my plugin I'd like to call some functions on existing mediaelement.js
 instances. Currently there is no way to do this except creating new ones
 with `new MediaElementPlayer()` but that would eat memory and mess up with
 the event listeners.

 Aim is to call `pause()`, `play()` and `addEventListener()` on the video
 element.

 Any clues? Looks like this is either a call for an enhancement or I am
 missing something.
