Should we remove it completely so that we do not give promises we cannot deliver?

It is broken because we used to look at video ID in the GET request. Now YT code does not use GET requests to actually start a video - everything is done on the client so that client knows what video ID corresponds to the flow from googlevideo.com domain - but we have no way to somehow see which video id the flow belongs to.
