This part I sort of get, but I'm not totally sold that
draft-deen-daigle-ggie-02 lays that out in a way I understand quite
what's different and not.  §6 ought to be doing that, but it doesn't
seem to me to have set questions that are precise enough.  And indeed,
some of the bits don't seem that unusual to video.  In particular,
neither alternate-source nor alternate-format is really a video
problem as such.

Well, yes, but these also jump to the solution without (2), above.

I think scoping the (2) part of this so that the nature of the work is
somewhat clearer will be a necessary condition for bof success.
