Comment (by bradyvercher):

 Vimeo currently only supports
 [https://vimeo.com/forums/feature_requests/topic:278001 background videos
 for Plus and PRO members] and it's only experimental at this point, so
 there isn't a core handler for it.

 The label in the Customizer needs to be updated to indicate that only
 YouTube is supported for now. There's also a validator for the
 `external_video_header` setting that probably needs to be updated or
 removed if it won't allow plugins to add additional handlers.

 I'll try to put together a plugin to add Vimeo support as a proof of
 concept to see if anything needs to be adjusted to make adding new
 handlers easier.
