From the link in comment 0 I don't understand the need. Could you explain why webm is not suitable for them? Thank you.

webm does not have a lot of tooling, it's uglier to work with, and has shortcomings related to frame duration if I remember correctly
mp4 is pretty bad too, but at least is supported everywhere and it's maintained by a separate entity

for more containers fun: https://codecs.multimedia.cx/2014/03/all-containers-suck/

You need to sell it to folks like YouTube, Netflix or Facebook...

But I agree with Vittorio, webm is a awful container to work with...

Attached patch AV1 addendum (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Will need this for MSE to work with AV1 in mp4 (Also a fly by fixup for vp9 so you must use it with video/mp4 and not audio/mp4)
