Go to any video on www.youtube.com 2. Wait 2 seconds Actual Results: The "Plugin is Disabled" message blinks and then disappears. In it's place, the video area shows a black screen with a message that I need to upgrade my Flash Player to watch the video.
This is a poor user experience. If fennec is going to disable plugins, it should at least tell users what its doing. Definitely not ask them to download the latest flash release.

1) good selection in music. 2) this is really not a fennec bug. basically the site that you are going to, namely YouTube.com, is serving up flash content. The site could easily detect if flash was installed (using js). Maybe this is a evangelism issue? We will not block fennec for this.
