Comment (by jorbin):

 I have to agree with Nacin.  This is something that should be fixed
 upstream. It is a degraded experience to always show the controls. We also
 would be changing the way existing videos are displayed, which is
 something that I can imagine many users wouldn't be happy with.

 It does highlight that when we adopt front end libraries, we should make
 sure to consider if the accessibility standards they hold themselves to
 are the same ones that we hold for ourselves.
