Added Sequencer section to associate TextTrack and TimingObject #9

Closed tidoust closed 9 years ago

This commit proposes a new TimingTextTrack interface that inherits from TextTrack and can be associated with a TimingObject, thus enabling the TimingObject to act as sequencer in a very similar way to how a media element acts as sequencer for its list of text tracks.

Introducing mechanisms similar to the ones that exists for media elements required to pull a lot of definitions from HTML5. Some parts are incomplete but hopefully the parts that are specified give a good idea of the technical solution that is being proposed.

I added a warning in the Status of This Document about the fact that the spec does not attempt to be complete at this stage.
