Are you sure about this? I've not seen this in the wild as of yet.
Yes. Perhaps you just didn't realize the OGM files you saw contained
propritary codecs. Most software that will play Ogg/Theora will also
play the Ogg/Xvid.
Even Wikipedia knows:

The better
solution for this, esp for video, is Michael Dales inline
player for Mediawiki.
Does this player work well? Could you offer a link? I've not see it
in action yet.
It's checked into SVN, at least partially. It's not done yet. It was
demonstrated at Wikimania. Google for Michael Dale SOC or something
like that. :)
For the
purposes of usability going half-way just doesn't provide the benefits.
Agreed, but I thought something had to be done. Thus, this discussion.
Maybe this discussion will lead to something else: another solution,
an improved solution, or probably one more solution.
Sounds good to me.
