Feature Request: Streaming MPEG4 to the webcam view

Description

It would be nice if the inbuilt web server for webcam view could stream MPEG4 directly instead of multipart JPEG. that way you could use the free MPlayer software to view the stream. MPlayer doesn't require MS Media Player style streaming, it can stream directly from an HTTP stream. Using MPEG4 (via libavcodec) would allow for much lower bitrate for remote viewing, and wouldn't require cambozola to display in a browser anymore. I would add this feature if I could but if it's already in the pipeline...
