After some work on this patch I'm not sure it's really a good idea to use webkitmediasrc for data: uris... It's been designed with the http use-case in mind...

If webkitwebsrc is used in that context, a single buffer for the whole media is pushed by appsrc. This breaks seeking because the element will again push the same buffer downstream when a seek is done. A solution could probably be to cache the single big buffer and push sub-buffers of the cached buffer but not sure this is really worth...

What do you think Sebastian?
