Yes, there's been recent developments in trunk about the GStreamer MSE
backend. If you build WebKitGTK+ from trunk already then YouTubeTV
should work (more or less :)) provided than you enable the MSE
websetting:

run-launcher --gtk --enable-mediasource=1 http://youtube.com/tv

The backend is not complete yet, it's not coupled with the VIDEO_TRACK
support yet, there's a WiP patch there:
