Description Ami Fischman 2012-04-12 10:09:52 PDT 
HTMLMediaElement::beginScrubbing() unconditionally pauses playback; this means that clicking the time-bar of an unseekable
video does a pause/play pair without moving currentTime (b/c of 4.8.10.9, step 7).

Instead, interacting with the time-bar of unseekable media should be a true no-op and playback should be smooth.
