I think you need to define what you mean by HTML. http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/html/tagpages/b/blink.htm
It doesn't work that way. HTML is well-defined: http://www.w3.org/html/
It has in fact been supported by Netscape, it was supported in IE4 (and I believe phased out after that).
Irrelevant.
It is part of the css1 standard (text-decoration: blink).
"text-decoration" is a CSS attribute, not a HTML element.

You still need a renderer to display the video - whether you embed a java object, a flash object, a Windows Media Player object, etc...you're still going to leave out a segment of the crowd. No matter what method you chose you're still using a proprietary plugin - you just have to choose the one you think the most people will have. I think that's flash.
Poor implementation is not my concern. An embedded video file is standard HTML and works just fine as-is in Konqueror with MPlayer Plugin.
