Would it help adding a <link

In Firefox, yes. Does anyone else implement that? If it's only
Firefox, we could just as well replace Cortado with <video autobuffer>
to begin with as soon as the page loads. In Chrome and Safari, we
don't even need the autobuffer, since they don't implement it.
(Actually, <video autobuffer preload=auto> would be the current way to
do it, given recent spec changes.)
I hope no one is ever insane enough to use this.
Imagine those people
with cellphones and no data transfer flat (~70% of mobile internet
users) - their bills will skyrocket when even a single video is set to
auto-preload.
