Comment (by flixos90):

 +1 for this.

 I think we can leave the `is_front_page()` check in for a sane default,
 but that return value should receive a filter so that theme developers who
 explicitly need the video header in other areas can dig in to adjust it.

 A solution that would be even cleaner is to allow an additional argument
 when registering theme support for `custom-header`: Something like a
 `has_video_cb` could be used, with the default value of `is_front_page`.
