 Replying to [comment:4 Otto42]:
 > Question: how is this different than the subtitles file? For those that
 have such, of course.

 The proposal here is to make the full transcript part of the page rather
 than a linked element that requires parsing by the user. When you visit
 the page for a video, you should see the video player directly followed by
 the full transcript of the video as part of the post. In feeds you should
 see the transcript, and it should also be exposed in the API (if
 available).

 The current subtitles file is provided as .ttml which is not natively read
 by the browser and requires parsing. It also contains a large volume of
 timecode data which needs to be stripped out for it to work as a
 transcript.
