A few thoughts:
1: embedded html5 player option? for mp4
2: eventual xbmc plugin (would really be nice).
That's odd, I haven't experienced that issue at all. Can you download a file without problems (use the download links instead of the watch button)?
Regarding your points, I was thinking about an in-browser player too but I think it would be useless on most media files since most people use MKV and browser support for h.264 isn't that good last time I checked.
Regarding point #2, what XBMC really needs is a way to connect to a remote library, but that is no simple task to accomplish.
